Its been a busy few weeks for our U15 Hurlers - With a squad of 45 players management have been busy juggling games and trainings all year and all the hard work has paid off as all 3 teams are in the business end of the Championship.

U15A Team
The boys completed their games in the group stages with a hard fought win away to St Josephs Doorabarefield last evening - While the weather was hot and muggy their was a downpour and thunder and lightening just before throw in which made the conditions slippy for both teams. The home side got off to a great start and lead 1-02 to 0-01 early on but the Bridge boys kept the scoreboard ticking over and went in leading by a point at half time no a score of 3-05 to 2-07. A good start to the second half saw the visitors take control around the middle third and outscored their opponents 1-06 to 0-04 in the second half to win by 4-11 to 2-11. Following the group stages the Bridge finished 2nd in their group and now have a 4 weak break to the semi final which takes place on June 24th at a neutral venue against Newmarket or Kilmaley.
