JHC, Shamrocks 2-13, Brickey Rangers 2-13.
Shamrocks Junior hurlers maintained their unbeaten run in the Junior Championship last Thursday evening in Clashmore, but they were pushed all the way by a strong Brickeys team who nearly snatched victory in the last few minutes. The teams were evenly matched in the early stages when a goal from Eamonn Forbes and a point from Edward O’ Neill was cancelled out by points from Brickeys who looked very lively. Points from Padraig Tobin and Bernie Kelleher came between a goal and three points from Brickeys to give them a four point lead, but points from Bernie and Tom Roche left the half time score 1-7 to 1-5 in favour of the Brickeys. The second half was score for score with points from Jamie Murphy and Keegan O’ Farrell keeping us in touch. Then we hit a purple patch sparked by a fine Dan O’ Neill goal, followed by three points from Jamie, and one each from Bernie and Billy Hynes to give us a five point lead with about ten minutes left. However Brickeys then hit a scoring run of their own and a goal and three points left them up by the minimum, and it took a gutsy pointed free from Jamie Murphy to earn a draw, which was probably deserved. This was their toughest game so far, and it was a good trial of our team to hang in for a draw. We have two more games left to play, versus Melleray and Abbeyside. Panel; Richie Murphy, Martin Delaney, Thomas Baldwin, Michael Lucey, Sean Murphy, Tomas O’ Neill, Liam Dalton, Billy Hynes (0-1), Jamie Murphy (0-5), Edward O’ Neill (0-1), Bernie Kelleher (0-3), Tom Roche (0-1), Eamonn Forbes (1-0), Dan O’ Neill (1-0), Padraig Tobin (0-1), Keegan O’ Farrell (0-1), Alan Kelly, Seamie Tobin, Connor Goulding, J.A.

Junior Football.
Shamrocks last game in the group stages was supposed to be played last Saturday, but we received a walkover from Tallow. So we await the quarter final pairings to see who our opponents will be.
Cúl Camps.
Knockanore is the venue for this year’s Cúl Camp which will take place from next Monday 7th August. Let’s hope they get good weather for it.
