LADIES FOOTBALL: Last weekend saw round 1 of the junior championship, Mungret travelled to Oola on what was a miserable evening. Things didn't go Mungrets way and were unfortunately defeated. The intermediate team also opened their championship campaign with a loss away to Knockainey. In round 2 of the intermediate championship, Mungret defeated MurroeBoher on a scoreline of 3.07 to 2.08. This was fine spirited contest. Underage training will resume this weekend.

SENIOR HURLING: Mungret St. Pauls 1-23 Adare 2-17. On Thursday last in Askeaton, Mungret St Paul's played Adare in the third round of the group matches. Adare had a better start leading 0-4 to 0-1 after eight minutes, it took the next eight minutes for Mungret St. Pauls to match Adares points. Mungret St. Pauls then started to pull ahead with the addition of a goal from Mungret St. Pauls they lead 1-11 to 0-9 at half time. On the restart, Adare did not hold back as they shot their first sliotar into the net, bringing them back into the game and they soon took the lead from Mungret St. Pauls which did not last long as a fight back from us saw the sliotars through the uprights to add up to a four point lead. Adare came back into the game again, their second goal left Mungret St. Pauls with a four point lead. One more point from Adare saw the game out and Mungret St. Pauls took our second win, this win holds our unbeaten start to the season and keeps us in line to a place in the quarter-final. The next Senior Hurling match is on Friday against Monaleen in Clarina.

JUNIOR A HURLING: Mungret St. Pauls 5-27 Blackrock 0-12. In Kilbreedy on Friday 1 September our Junior A hurlers took on Blackrock. This was very much a one sided game with Mungret St. Pauls playing with 14 men for roughly 10 minutes while an injured player was being attended to they still got their scores on the board while holding back Blackrock. Once back to full strength they kept the score board ticking over. There was no doubt by half time that Mungret St. Pauls had this game won but the pressure still had to be kept on marking Blackrock players and preventing them from adding any scores. A clean sweep by the Junior A Hurlers so far in this group topping the table with their three wins. They are next out on Sunday 10 September against Doon in Monaleen.

Na Piarsaigh

SENIOR HURLERS: Our senior hurlers were in round 3 action in the Irish Wire County Senior Hurling Championship on Saturday when they travelled to Bruff to take on Doon. Adrian Breen began the goals inside 5 minutes and Conor Boylan added another inside the first 15 minutes. Ronan Lynch added some excellent frees before adding our third goal in the 22 minutes and this was swiftly followed by a fourth goal and Adrian Breen's second. Peter Casey also contributed handsomely with four first-half points to leave the halftime score at 4-09 to 0-8 in our favor.
The second half was indeed similar but this time it was points we were taking. Some excellent shooting from Wayne Kearns, Emmet McEvoy, and goalkeeper Shane Dowling all adding points. A good workmanlike performance from the team and one which will satisfy the management as the group begins to hot up. Final score Na Piarsaigh 4-23 Doon 0-16 Team: Shane Dowling, Emmet McEvoy, Mike Casey(capt), John Fitzgerald, Mike Foley, Kevin Downes, Vince Harrington, Wayne Kearns, JJ Carey, Conor Boylan, David Dempsey, Ronan Lynch, Adrian Breen, Will Henn, Peter Casey Scorers: Adrian Breen 2-3, Ronan Lynch 1-7, Conor Boylan 1-3, Peter Casey 0-5, Wayne Kearns 0-1, Keith Dempsey0-1, Emmet McEvoy0-1, Shane Dowling 0-1, David Dempsey 0-1.

INTERMEDIATE HURLERS: Our second string was also in action in Round 4 of the Premier Intermediate Championship where they faced Blackrock in Bruff on Sunday. We trailed at the break on an 0-8 to 0-6 scoreline. It was great to see Alan Dempsey back following injury and he did well in that half alongside Conor Richardson, Mark O Connor and James O'Brien. We worked hard in that second half and into the closing minutes we had leveled the game at 14 points apiece. However, it was Blackrock who finished the stronger with the last three points to win the game on a 0-17 to 0-14 scoreline. We must now dust down and go again this Friday evening in Adare versus Effin. Team: Evan Condon, Cathal McMullen, Gearoid Synnott, Padraic Heaney, Mark O'Connor, James O Brien, Conor Richardson, Dean McLoughlin, Dylan Lynch, James Finn, Pat Gleeson, Kevin Daly, Marcus Hogan, Evan Sweeney, Alan Dempsey
