Club Notes: 21st August 2016

Cub Lotto
The winning numbers drawn in last week’s lotto draw were 12-14-24-26, and there was no winner. €20 winners were Tom O’ Donovan, Thomas Baldwin, Edward Leahy, Liam Casey, Joe Geary. Next week’s jackpot will be €16,650.

Intermediate Hurling.
Shamrock’s second round match versus Brickey Rangers which takes place next Sunday, has been switched from Cappoquin to Lismore. The throw – in time is the same however, 1.30pm. We’ve been waiting a long time for any championship hurling match, so let’s hope we have a full panel to choose from and the lads play well. It will be around 15 weeks since our last championship match next Sunday, nearly three and a half months in the Summer without any meaningful action. It’s not ideal, but the same for all I suppose. Best of luck to the Shamrocks.

Deise U-21’s into the final.
This semi-final against Antrim was effectively over at half time with the Waterford lads showing no mercy to the boys from the Glens. They will face Galway in the All-Ireland final around the 11th September in a repeat of the 2013 minor final won by the Deise. They are good enough to win it, but will be wary of the Tribesmen who are unpredictable, and will not hand the title over without a fight. ‘Hon the Deise’!

Sean Kelly Tour
This year is the tenth anniversary of the Sean Kelly cycle tour of Waterford, and once again for the fifth year in a row there was a food stop in Knockanore. Quite a sight to see nearly 2,000 cyclists coming through the K.G.K Hall which was once again manned by local volunteers who did the parish proud. Well done to all involved.
