Our Intermediate Team had a tough league campaign in Division 2 against a lot of club first teams and had several good performances which showed they were very competitive, for instance a draw against Eire Og in Rd. 4 and only losing by the minimum to Bodyke in Rd.1 and a 2 point loss to Inagh Kilnamona in Rd. 3 along with a few more narrow defeats. Management took the oppurtunity to play some of our younger players and introduce them to the very competitive intermediate hurling grade. Details from the Inagh game in Round 3 are below.
