SENIOR HURLING
The quarter final of the Cahill Cup vs JK Brackens has been brought forward to tonight Friday at 8:00pm in Drombane. Our re-fixed quarter final of the mid championship versus Loughmore-Castleiney is currently planned for the last weekend of June but no definite date is set yet as we are also due to play senior football earlier in the week. In the semi finals of the County Challenge Cup we have been drawn against Holycross-Ballycahill. No decision has been made on when this game will be played either.


JUNIOR HURLING
Congratulations to our junior hurlers who last weekend won the Mid Tipp Junior League Div 2 final against Gortnahoe-Glengoole 2-17 to 1-13. Gortnahoe got off to a flying start with a goal in the first minute and maintained that advantage going into the break 5 points ahead. The 2nd half saw Upperchurch slowly clawing their way back into the game and with 7 minutes left the sides were level and from there on it was one-way traffic as we outscored Gortnahoe by 1-5 to 0-1. Well done to all the players, led by Lenny Purcell, and backroom team on bringing home our first title of the season. The mid championship is due to start on weekend of 18th/19th June with the junior football championship commencing the week after.


SENIOR FOOTBALL
Our remaining county championship group game vs Kilsheelan-Kilcash is set for Wed 22nd June at 7:30pm in New Inn. This may change due to the necessity to also fit in senior hurling fixtures around the same time.
