Sunday morning had me knocking around to watch an U15 Football Féile game. I was struck by the amount of action going on. We had Senior Camogie on PNU1, Minor on PNU2, and U15 on MIE, and this was just the first round of games; They continued all through the morning, with the Junior Hurlers playing the last game at 3pm.
Sure, before long, I'll be back to complaining about people parking in hatched lines, and reminding members of our obligations to our neighbouring communities.
It's all good - great to see the car park full, and the blue and white on show everywhere.

The County board have appealed to all clubs to increase the number of referees representing them. In particular there is a shortage of referees at CCC2 (U13-16) and Adult Levels. The Dublin Camogie board have also expressed similar concerns.
In light of this, the county board are bringing in regulations next season that each club will be required to supply 1 referee for every 2 teams they have entered in competition. St Vincents are looking for expressions of Interest for members who would be interested in becoming a referee.
The county board runs regular courses for referees. If you'd like to register your interest, please do so via our form at https://vins.ie/refinterest.

Another big weekend of championship action last weekend, and plenty more coming. Here's this weeks' update:
Adult Camogie
|
|
|
| |
|
|
| |
Senior Camogie have had a great start, winning 2 from 2. Last weekend was their round 2 game against Na Fianna, where they won by 7 (2-14 to 1-10). They will play their round 3 game this Sunday, 26th at home to Lucan Sarsfields (Facebook event). This is a great chance to catch top-flight Dublin camogie on our doorstep. Get yourselves down!

Our Intermediate Camogie team contest the Intermediate championship semi-final. That's away to Na Fianna on this Sunday 26th, at 12:30. That's on Mobhi Road, so just down the road. Should be a cracker.
Our Junior 1's game v Erin's Isle was pushed (again! I'm hearing of Referree shortages) to Oct 3. Their next game is Sunday 26th, at home to Thomas Davis at 12:30
Our Junior 3 were due to contest the Shield Final, on the Sunday 26th, but the opposition have requested a reschedule. I'll keep my ear to the ground!
Adult Hurling
Senior Hurling had a big win over Setanta in their last game. Next game is fixed for 4pm on Sunday October 3, versus Lucan Sarsfields. That'll be on in Parnell park. I'll link to the tickets page once it is avialable.
Our Intermediate Hurling lost by 6 points against Judes last weekend. Their next outing is on Saturday 2 October, when they take on Kilmacud Crokes, in Silver Park at 5pm.
Our Junior A had a bye, so nothing to report there, but take on Good Counsel/Liffey Gaels on Saturday 2 October at home at 5pm.
Our Junior B had a big win (6-16 to 0-14) over Na Fianna last weekend, and look forward to meeting Skerries Harps on Sunday 3 October, away at 3pm.
Ladies Football
Our minor ladies team won their Shield semi final against St Brigids (5:13 to 2:13) and will now meet Foxrock/Cabinteely in the Shield final. That hasn't been fixed yet; I'll let you know when I do.
The U16 ladies team weren't in champo action last weekend. They meet Maurs this Sunday, 26th at home at 4:30pm (PNU2)
The U15 ladies take on Scoil Ui Chonaill this Satuday, 25th at 1:30pm (PNU2)

Minor B Get their campaign started this Sunday 26th, at home Clanna Gael Fontentoy (11:00 am - MIE).

Congratulations to the GAA4MO group who got out and represented St Vincents in the GAA4MO blitz in Starlights GAA at the weekend. The weather was great and by all accounts it was a great outing consisting of the hosts, Erin's Isle, Olaf's, Fingal Ravens and ourselves, naturally. They asked me to thank Robbie Hughes who has been training the ladies. Rumour has it that the LGFA are considering a new title for GAA4MO back room staff. I'm told it is "Maor Fíon"

The Senior Camogie team have enjoyed great support in recent years from the younger Camógs; I'm sure any games played last year without their loyal fanbase were quiet in comparison, and the support was well missed.
So, it was great to be sent on this photo of the U12 Camogie team who came out to support their Coach Áine Fanning for the Senior game against Na Fianna at the weekend.

While it's great to have the support back, methinks some of the girls have taken a stretch and I'm sure Áine is delighted that she's difficult to pick out now. Thanks to the U12 girls for rallying!
