Tipperary GAA Scene
Allianz Football and Hurling Leagues
There were mixed results for both our senior teams last weekend that saw the senior hurlers lose to Waterford in Walsh Park which essentially means that their hopes of reaching the knock out stages of the league are now gone. The players now prepare to welcome Antrim to FBD Semple Stadium on Sunday 20th March for the final game of the group stage of the league.
The senior footballers returned to Chadwicks Wexford Park last Sunday for the rescheduled Round 3 game and while they did not record a very high score, they did come away with a win on a fulltime score of 4-4 to 0-15. This result now puts the footballers into third place on the league table and in a very good position as they prepare to play Cavan this Sunday 13th March and while our opponents will be many peoples favourites, Tipperary’s confidence is rising and they will not fear their opponents.
Tipperary Clubs Draw
The March clubs draw took place last Friday in Quinlan’s Bar, Moyne, hosted by the Moyne-Templetuohy club. There was a large turnout and a great welcome extended to everyone by the host club. This month’s top prize of a car or €15,000 went to Roscrea’s Tess Moten while the second prize of a €5000 holiday voucher or cash was won by Pat Kelly who is joined with Kiladangan. There was no winner of the €3000 lotto jackpot which means that next month the jackpot will increase to €4000. Well done to all the winners and once again we thank all our members for their continued support.
