Carrick Davins Under 17 footballers played Clonoulty/Rossmore in an away match that was a fantastic, hard-fought battle.

Clonoulty won the contest but the Davins players performed strongly from start to finish.

U15 Football

The Under 15 footballers achieved a convincing win over Ballingarry at home in Páirc Daimhín.

This is a very young team, but their work rate was outstanding from the first whistle to the last. The players are a real credit to their coaches and their own efforts at training.

Go Games Blitz

The Under 9 team played three brilliant and enjoyable matches at a Go Games Blitz at the High School in Clonmel.

Blitzes like this are worth their weight in gold, giving the children the perfect chance to put the skills they’re learning from their amazing coaches into action.

Juvenile Academy

A very special thank you to Bridget Whelan (Cronin) for her generous donation of academy goalposts.

They have already proven to be a massive hit and are a brilliant addition to training sessions, helping coaches teach the skills and rules of the game to the Club's youngest stars.

The Little Rebels Academy and Under 9 training continues every Wednesday at 6.15pm.

New members are always welcome.
