Liberty Insurance All Ireland Senior Championship:

 

The Dublin Senior Team bowed out of the All Ireland Liberty Insurance Championship last Saturday evening in Páirc Uí Chaoimh.

Galway proved to be to good on the night and ran out comfortable winners on a scoreline of 0-20 to 0-04.

The Dublin senior team were naturally gutted with the defeat and disappointed with their display in the game as they know that they are much better than the final scoreline suggests, but it was one of those day’s where it just didn’t happen for them.

Many Thanks to the Dublin County Board and especially FODH who are great supporters of Dublin Camogie for subsidising a bus to Cork and Thanks to all who travelled on it to support the senior team.

 

Dublin Camogie U16:

 

Both the Dublin U16A and U16B teams are in All Ireland Semi Final Action this weekend. Both squads are playing Galway in the semi’s with both those games taking this Sunday the 12th of August in Coralstown, Kinegad.

The Dublin U16B’s get the action underway against Galway at 2pm and then it’s the turn of the Dublin and Galway U16A’s to battle it out at 4pm.

All support at both games would be greatly appreciated.
