County Mini 7s Finals
Our boys travelled to Rathkeale to represent South Limerick in the County INTO Mini 7s football finals.
They had three games against the winners of the City, East and West divisions.
In the first game, they were defeated by an excellent Roxborough NS team who would eventually win out the competition.
In game two, they were defeated by Broadford NS but played very well, possibly having a greater share of possession but did not register enough scores to trouble the West side.
In the final game, Herbertstown had a good win over St. Nessan’s NS to finish the competition in third place. Well done to the boys and their coach Mr. Franklin.

Massive congratulations to our pupils Sadhbh and Jocelyn who were part of the South Limerick team who won the Larkin Shield last evening in the Gaelic Grounds.
