Although the scoreline reads that Tipperary were 12 point winners over Waterford, the Deise did give a very spirited and hard working display in Thurles on Saturday night last. Club players Gavin Crotty and Kieran Power gave outstanding performances for their county while Joe Allen and Michael Kiely deservedly saw action also when coming on as second half subs.

Ballyduff tournament
Our under 10s made the annual trip to Ballyduff on Saturday morning last to participate in the now infamous Ballyduff tournament. First opposition for the boys were St. Catherine’s who proved to be a a most formidable oufit and proved to strong for the boys. Second game was to prove to be another titanic battle but this time the sides could not be separated and a draw was the outcome.
Our third and final game was against Ballygunner and with the benefit of the two previous games under their belt the boys put in a terrific performance to run out worthy winners. Unfortunately, our efforts were to prove in vain as scoring difference decided we would not progress in the competition.
