🏐 On the pitch

U15s vs Rathangan 

Our U15s played Rathangan in Ardclough last Saturday. Although they lost on the day, they battled hard right up to the final whistle. Hard luck the team.


U13s vs Eadestown 

Our Division 4 U13 team travelled to Eadestown earlier in the week. Although they lost out narrowly to a strong Eadestown team, they did themselves and their coaches proud, putting in a great effort.


U13s vs Leixlip

Our U13 Division 1 team started their campaign in style with a good win against Leixlip in Ardclough. Well done girls. 👏💪


U12s vs Sallins

Our U12s welcomed Sallins to Straffan last Saturday morning. An entertaining game against two evenly matched teams. The girls now move onto the first of their Spring league games next Saturday the 5th in Clane at 1pm.
A big thank you to PwC for their sponsorship of the U12s new jerseys.


U10s vs Eadestown

Our U10s travelled over to Eadestown last Saturday and played brilliantly and battled through the rain. 
Next up, the team host the first of their go games blitzes in Straffan on Saturday against Capagh and Confey at 11am. We wish them all the best. 

A big thank you to PwC for also sponsoring a set of jerseys for the U10s.
