Bank Holiday means a quiet weekend except..
 
This weekend is a bank holiday weekend which means most teams have a weekend off.  Except of course there's the small matter of a Senior 1 Dublin Camogie title up for grabs. That's on in Abbotstown, so let's get out and get behind our girls.
if you want something included in the club notes, all you have to do is drop me a mail at pro@stvincentsgaa.ie.

The Gaelic Players Association are running a "Gaelic Voices for Change Youth Workshop".

Get well soon, Jack
 
The club wishes a get well soon to Minor Player, Jack Daly. 10 minutes into our Minor C clash with Castleknock last week saw him in a 2-on-1 shoulder to shoulder challenge for the ball.  Jack got the ball, but at the expense of his collarbone. Oof.  
 
Why yes, this first hand account of the events is brought to you by the fact that I was at the game in question, and Jack is my own lad.
 
Some great results last weekend
 
Some great results last weekend with the girls getting the biggest share of the spoils. 
Our U13 Camogie team won their Divsion Shield Final on a scoreline of 8-6 to 1-0 against Whitehall
Our U14 Girls won their Division 2 Camogie Final by the narrowest of margins (2-3 to 1-7) against Kimacud
 Not to be outdone, the U16 Camogie team won their Division 1 Shield on a scoreline of 7-11 to 6-7 also gainst Kilmacud
 
Well done U13 Girls!
 
 
In addition to those great Camogie results, our Junior Hurlers won the Junior B County Title in a thriller in O'Toole Park against a joint Good Counsel/Liffey Gaels side. Final score was 2-15 to 0-17. Pictured here is Collie Hayen, Junior B Captain raising the Cup.  Collie is also a former players representative on the exec committe which I've had the pleasure of sharing with him. Well done Collie and the rest of your team and management!
 
And so they're on the move!
 
Given the win in Dublin, the Junior Hurlers now go on to contest the Junior B Leinster Championship. Junior B is a competition run up to all-Ireland level.  Their next game is against O’Loughlin Gaels in the Junior B Leinster Quarter Final, fixed for 2nd of November in O'Loughlin Gaels ground.  Did somebody say road trip???
