Our Novice Ladies and Novice Men did the club proud at the County Novice Championships in Castlecomer today. Thanks to Kate Millea, Declan Walshe and Padraig Ruane organising the teams so that everyone had a team supporting. The ladies were away first and a great performance by Grainne Behan saw her take the individual silver. Gretta Beckett 6th, Aibhlin Murphy 8th and Aisling Gannon 10th completed the scoring and ensured the gold medal position for the team.
The men were surely out in force – all eleven of them, and while individual medals were not won the team performances were adequate compensation – taking first team and third team medals. Placings were as follows:- 4 Andrew Smith, 5 Graham Bourne, 8 Mick Cullen, 9 Paul Bolger, 12 John Murphy, 13 Paddy Walsh, 14 Danny Quinn, 16 David Lawlor, 17 Bernard O’Driscoll, 26 James Gaule, 28 Sean O hArgain.
