Mycro Helmets Indoor Hurling League 2009.
Mycro
Helmets Indoor Hurling League.
Finals
Very large crowds attended the Sports hall In St.Anthony’s School on Saturday 28th February to witness the 2009 Finals of the Blackrock Mycro Indoor Hurling Leagues. First up was the Contenders Finals and in spite of a draw in the Final, the Buzzards were deemed victorious due to goal differences in the earlier round of games. For Coach Colm Daly it was a great morning as he managed to get the very best out of his team. Blackrock senior player David Cashman presented the medals to all the participants.
Tom Cashman manager of the defeated Ospreys praised his team
“It’s very easy to come along when you are winning; it takes great lads to turn up week after week if the results are not going your way”
The Challengers Finals saw the Vultures emerge from the flock to claim victory ahead of the Hawks and the Harriers. Youngsters such as Mark O’Keeffe, Daniel Tyner, Adam Coughlan and Nathan Montgomery played their hearts out for coach Declan McCarthy.
A thrilled Declan admitted afterwards that he was extremely proud of his charges, “We were extremely unlucky in the earlier rounds and the lads had to dig deep to come away with this one” he admitted.
Paul Tierney presented the medals to all the Rockies.
The Champions Final came down to the Falcons and the Condors, however the Condors justified their top of the table position by taking the honours in a hard fought final. David Dalton, the Cormack twins and Mark Madden were outstanding for the winners, while Eoghan O’Leary, David Carroll and Jacob Buckley caught the eye for the Falcons.
There were tears of joy and tears of sorrow at the end of the 63 game tournament, however Wayne Sherlock praised all the boys for their efforts as he presented the medals.
The thanks of the Blackrock Hurling Club go to Victor Morgan of Mycro Sports for his sponsorship. We are also grateful to Flor O’Sullivan, Principal of St. Anthony’s School for the use of his facilities.
