Camogie
On Tuesday 12th October our First years and Junior Camogie players played against Charleville in the CBS Field. These matches were good learning experiences for all involved.
Senior Hurling
Our senior Hurling Panel played a challenge game against St Joseph’s Borrisoleigh on Tuesday 12th October. Both teams were delighted to be back in action after nearly a year and a half of in activity.
In an evenly contested game Borrisoleigh just edged it on a shoreline of 2 21 to 1 22. Roscrea used 25 players on the day and overall were happy with the performance. Next game is a challenge versus Borrisokane Community College. Training continues on designated evenings.
School Trip
On Thursday 14th October the TY’s and LCA’s took a trip to Spike Island and Mitchelstown caves. Thanks to the teachers that travelled with the groups and also the TY and LCA teachers who covered classes while teachers were away. The students enjoyed the trip and found it beneficial and educational.
