Last weekend we had three teams participating in the Grads Tournament in Belfast, on Friday night our U12 (2003) team were in action playing 5 matches and winning the tournament in a thrilling final against Clonard. This was another great achievement for this team following on from their U12 Irish Cup win earlier in the year. On the Saturday and Sunday it was the turn of the Boys and Girls 2000 born players, the Boys lost out in a place in the Semi Finals were the Girls got through in the Semi’s loosing out to Donegal Diamonds in another great game finishing 8-7 to Donegal. We would like to thank Joe Connolly and all the other organisers from Grads for another great tournament and we will be back next year.
