P.J. Troy Cup Winners 2o12: David Owens,Adam Crosby, Jack O Connor, Stephen Dunne,Andrew Dunee, Brook Owens, Frank Farrell, Dylan Joyce, Pearse O Brian, Cillian Dempsey,Brian Draper,Cian Pappard Lenord,Tadhig Stone, Nathan Masterson
In a brilliant run of five unbeaten games this team put in a great performance to win the P.J. Cup for the second time in the clubs history. With most club people not even knowing this tournament was on it is great credit to the mangers and players who brought great honour to the club in festival week. Following on from our success at under 15 and 14 age groups if things are looked after right the club can look forward to good crop of players coming through to our adult teams. Unbeaten in the group having beaten Lucan Sarsfield Faughs and St Judes they met division one team Ballenteer St Johns in the final. This team put in a great team performance which was led by Conor Caberry and Pearse O Breian who both put in outstanding tournament. If the right resources and work continues to be put int these teams hopefully as a club we can look to further progress on the playing fields of Dublin. Again congratulation to the mentors and team from every one in the club.
2012 P.J.Troy Winners D 2
On Wednesday our senior hurling match was called off due to the bad rain. Both our second and third were out on Sunday morning. Needing a win the second adult team put in a good performance against a young O Tooles team to win by four points. Our third team who on top of their league through hard work were well beaten by a well drilled Crokes team. With six points in it at half time the mountain was two big to climb and we lost our place as leaders of the league with one match left. Four teams now share the top with one match left.

On a general comment about these two teams their is a lot of good work going in from both players and managers. Yet there is a small group of players who seem and think that they can appeared and go when it suits themselves. These players are good players but they dont seem to have the commitment that the blue jersey should get. If we had a full complement of players on Sunday we could of got that result out in Bray. Finishing up on the postive the league is still there for us.
