Paddy O'Beirne Trophy
The Junior boys and girls play in the "Paddy O'Beirne Trophy" run by Elm Park. There are 5 rounds in 5 different clubs and the final is played in Elm Park in September each year. The boys overall was won by Edmondstown.
The Girls had the best score in Newlands and were awarded with their trophies yesterday following the final. Elm Park won the overall prize for top scores over the 6 rounds and Stackstown came 2nd overall. Very proud of the 5 girls who play in the various rounds throughout the summer months. Photos show all 5 with the Tilestyle Trophy and the girls who played in the final and the 3rd photo the 3 girls who won in Newlands. Well done girls, it has been a pleasure working with you all.
Special thanks to Michael Kavanagh for all the lessons he has given the girls through these lessons the girls have progressed each year and I hope they will continue to do so and play for our club teams in the years to come.

Girls Juvenile Convenor
