Fe 12 semi final- Midleton 4-10 v Watergrasshill 1-03
Our girls were in action again this week with a home fixture in Clonmult Memorial Park.
A beautiful autumnal evening and  a perfect pitch made for ideal conditions. The two teams served up a cracking game of Football. From the start our forwards were into their stride: Aoife Fitzgerald, Aisling McCarthy, Grainne Finn, Katie Smith, Kelly Quirke and Rachel Ryan all contributed to our half time lead. Jill Connaughton, Ellen O’Neill, Saoirse Ni’Theangana and Ava McAuliffe were rock solid in defence.
Our girls second half performance was as spirited as their first half one. Clara Collins, Isabelle Nestor, Selena O’Riordan-Hernandez, Amy Murray, Sheila O’Leary-Hayes, Lily Kelly and Eva McSweeney all helped propel us over the finish line and guaranteed them us one more final before the season is over.

Fe 10
On Saturday morning last we took to the field for the final Rebel Óg game of the year. We welcomed Ballincollig to Clonmult Memorial Park. On a perfect morning for the small ball we produced some of our best hurling this year. All three teams played some brilliant hurling with some great hooking and blocking when they didn't have the ball. The standard is improving each week from all the teams we played. Next year's level I've no doubt will be tougher again. Also this week we had a visit from our Club captain and Cork senior hurler Luke O Farrell. Luke bought along the Munster Championship Cup and spoke to the boys about the importance of team work, sticking together as a team and never giving up on field. Afterwards he took questions from the players. Overall it was a very enjoyable experience for the boys. A big thank you to Luke for taking time out to come and talk to us. Training will continue for the next few Saturday's. Saturday's game was our last as Fé 10's and games have now finished until next year. Magpies ABÚ.

Fe 11
Last Saturday in Bishopstown was our hurling league final day. St Finbarrs, Youghal and the hosts provided the opposition. This was the culmination of the Fe 11 mini leagues which has run since March, the groupings for the finals in were based on league results. We fielded two very strong teams and after our performances last week in the Sean Fitz tournament we had high hopes of doing well. The first round saw us play Youghal with a win and a draw, it was a good start to the day’s events, next up was St Finbarrs this was an excellent game of hurling with the Magpies coming out on top in both fixtures, everything rested on the last match against the hosts Bishopstown this was a very keenly contested affair with a one point and two point winning margin respectively this was a hard earned but well deserved victory.  It was notable that all the fixtures were played in a very sporting manner which is a credit to all the teams involved. Even though there was no silverwear on the day we were still the outright winners of this group winning five out of six matches available. Well done to all 28 players on the day each one playing their part in a proud day for our hurlers.
Heartiest congratulations to our lads on their performance and behaviour throughout the long league campaign. Thanks again to the parents who travelled in big numbers for their support on the day, thanks to hosts Bishopstown and to GDA Colm Crowley for coordinating such a huge fixture list in both hurling and football throughout the season.  Sunday morning next sees us travel to Inniscarra to play in another hurling tournament in what should be another big learning experience for our lads.
