On Friday last, we opened the gates to our new field on Ballyrichard Road to show members, and the general public, the progress that has been made over the past number of months, and especially the past number of weeks. 100+ people attended with the first word of everybody’s lips being WOW. Everybody present walked around a very sandy field in awe of the progress to date. We’d like to thank all those that attended our open evening on Friday.

This coming Saturday, our Seniors take on Upperchurch-Drombane in their final group game of the 2018 Co. Senior Hurling Championship. The game takes place in Cashel at 6.30pm. A Swan win would mean that if Drom fail to beat Thurles Sars in their final game, there would be a 3-way playoff. A loss would mean we go into a relegation play-off with the bottom team from the other 3 groups. Best of luck lads. Let’s get to Cashel on Saturday to cheers our Seniors on.
