PRO Notes 24.6.2018

The Senior Men unfortunately lost to KKG in a game last week.  With only a 3 point deficit at half time, all was to play for but KKG took all their scores and won 0 – 16 to 1 – 06.  St Kiernans and Cu Chullainns are the next league opponents; good luck to all the players.

 

Parnells U13’s participated in the League final play offs last Friday.  They met Dulwich Harps in the semi-final and although they had good possession and scoring opportunities, Dulwich won the battle, 0-8 to 0-4.  The went on to play Taras in the final which was a great contest resulting in Tara winning the League cup.  Congratulations to all involved.  Parnells had one U8 team in action at the NLS Go Games Blitz, a marvellous day of football.  Thank you to the players and parents for travelling and to NLS for their hospitality.

 

The U15’s are the first team in action in a Championship this season.  They meet St Kiernan’s in the A Semi-final which we know will be a tough competitive match.  The U17’s play North Western Gaels at Northwick Park 28/6 7.00pm.  The U11’s will be playing in another Go Games Blitz at Northwick Park 30/6 noon.  The younger age groups may feature in the Round Towers Donnacha O’Donovan Family Day 1/7 noon.  Good luck to all the players and coaches involved.

 

Parnells GFC would like to congratulate Tom Farrell on his recent Sean Gael Award.  Involved with Parnells and London GAA for over 50 years and still actively supporting and organising in the club, his award is thoroughly deserved.  They don’t make them like Tom anymore!
