Offaly Footballer\’s & Hurler\’s Out At Weekend As Leinster Championship Kick\’s Off

U,13 Division 2 Leinster League Final.

Rhode U,13 Footballer\’s Travelled to O\’Connor Park  on Monday evening last where they took on Tullamore in which was a ding dong battle throughout and thankfully Rhode finished the game off as Leinster League Champions with the final score reading Rhode 7-12 to 6-06.  It was a truly magnificent evening from start to finish both teams marched around O\’Connor Park behind the piper like Giants then both teams standing proudly for the National Anthem. In every way it was like their All Ireland final and it was a game fit for that occasion as both teams gave an excellent display of football.  As the final whistle went the cheer\’s of the great Rhode Support could be heard as we congratulated the wonderful boy\’s and their management team on a wonderful win.

A massive thank you has to go to the management team of Stephen Darby, Seamus Cocoman, Michael Kennedy, Pauric Murphy, Craig Byrne.

U,13 Panel : Ryan Kellaghan, Liam Walsh, Mark O\’Meara, Cameron Egan, Ethan Hannon, Matt Heavey, Barry Dunne, Sean Daly, Noah Swaine, Evan Farrelly, Ben Kennedy, Ross Kellaghan, Ryan Murphy, Charlie Cullen, Cian Cocoman, Gavin Murphy, Aaron Byrne, Jamie Glennon, Nathan Glennon, Billy Quinn, Tiernan Foy, Ryan Quinn, Richie Glennon, Cillian Dempsey.
