Saturday 30 Jun 2012 Fe 11 - Hurling League
Midleton GAA () vs Mallow ()
Midleton, 11:30AM
This was the final match in this years Rebel Óg league before the finals later in the summer. We welcomed Mallow to Clonmult Memorial Park following our earlier trip to Mallow for the Football. Mallow travelled brought 16 players with them so we played two matches of 8 a side. It made a nice change to have dry skies and with the pitch in great shape we were ready for a decent couple of games. Fortunately thats the way it played out. Both teams got stuck in from early on and kept the ball moving.
The kids got a reminder of the importance of staying close to their markers when a few hits on hands and legs went in because they were too far away in the challenge.
some great scores on both sides made this a great finish to the first stage of the competition. Midleton came out on top in both matches and go to the top of the league.
Well done to all who played and many thanks to Blarney mentors and parents for making the trip.
