U12 Senior Girls, an all St Mellans affair, Hannah McKenna won against Jane McKenna, It was a greatwin for Hannah as she served first and never let Jane settle due to her high serve around the walls. A great win for Hannah in her first year playing handball.U12 Intermediate Girls – Shona Keenan won comfortably against Leah Larkin of Bawn. Congrats Shona!GAEIL TRIUCHA NOTESU13 Intermediate Girls – Aoibhinn Treanor was unlucky in the final to lose out to a strong Lily Kate Clerkin from Bawn. Lily Kate played a toss serve around the walls which caused trouble for Aoibhinn.U15 Senior Boys - Cormac Clerkin Bawn took the first 15-7 against Dylan Feely, nerves probably played a factor in Dylan’s game early on, but as the game progressed Dylan began to find his range and clawed it back to 15-7, but the 2 nd game Dylan came out all guns blazing and with some brilliant serves down the left and chasing every ball down he took the 2 nd game 15-5, in the tie-breaker Cormac took an early lead but Dylan never went away and clawed back to 6-10, and put Cormac out a few times before he got the point needed to win it 6-11, but a brilliant game and Dylan should be proud not only to reach a County Final but to also play so well in his first year at the sport.U16 Intermediate Boys – Fintan Treanor (P), won in a tie-breaker, played very well in first game, lost his way abit in the 2 nd , but re-grouped and won a tight tense tie-breaker, give it all/ left all in the alley. Fair play Fintan and congrats on your win.U16 Senior Boys – Odhran McMeel proved to be too strong for Liam Lappin of Monaghan Harps winning both games comfortably 15-2, 15-2, hard luck to Liam and well done Odhran!U17 Senior Boys Conor Treanor (PB) against Nathan Regiac (Harps), Conor won 15-14, 15-13, a real ding dong battle, the battle of the giants! As these 2 big players took to the alley, neither gave an inch as the score line suggest, it was point for point throughout, Conor played brilliantly and lifted balls from all ends of the court and was more than a worthy winner,Juveniles Coaching Juvenile coaching continues as normal this week.
