Community Games areas from all over the county were shocked by the very sad news of the untimely passing of Dillon Quirke, a member of the Tipperary Senior Hurling team on Friday evening.
As a mark of respect, all Community Games county finals scheduled for last Saturday were postponed. We extend our deepest sympathy to his family. They are in our thoughts and prayers during this very difficult time. May god comfort them in their sorrow. May Dillon Rest in Peace.
Soccer Finals
The County Finals of Soccer was held in Peake Villa, Thurles on Sunday where Roscrea had tremendous success winning all 3 events with the final game u12 boys Roscrea v Mullinahone going to extra time to decide the winner. This team has to play a preliminary match at the Munster finals in UL on September 3rd with the other two teams qualifying for the Main Munster finals in UL on September 10th. There is great credit due to all the teams that competed today and to their mentors. It is a great achievement to contest a county final. Huge Thank You also to special guest, Grace Flanagan, Cashel, Irish International Soccer player who presented medals and gave words of wisdom to the players,
To all of our Volunteers who gave their time to assist on a long day, to referee Billy Cummins and to Peake Villa for the use of their excellent facilities.
