More great success on the hurling pitch today - a big win for the u13 lads against Ballygar on a scoreline of 7-8 to 1-6. Great displays all over the pitch. Thanks to all the parents and travelling supporters. Final league stage game this coming Monday vs Ardrahan in Moycullen!

Exactly one year later. The youngest on the shoulders of the eldest. With the middle guy just out of shot. Didn’t make it onto the big screen this time but the love for Bruce & E Street Band & #ThunderRoad was still the same. #SpringsteenTour2024 #SpringsteenBelfast

Great to see the sunshine today. Also great to see the ongoing maintenance & upkeep of our pitches and facilities. A lot of hours are put in by volunteers who are quick to help out and quicker to run away from a camera. We know you you are…..fair play & thank you!!!
