The day was especially historic as it featured the Joseph Mary Plunketts making their first-ever appearance in SFGAA competition. The Plunketts didn’t disappoint, securing a decisive win over veteran club St. Joseph’s and making a bold statement for the season ahead.
The rivalry between Clan Na Gael and the Fog City Harps Ladies clubs reignited with the first match of the three-game St. Patrick’s Cup series. Clan Na Gael claimed the victory, setting the tone for what promises to be a tightly contested series.
The Tipperary Hurling Club notched a strong win over Pearse Óg, showing early form as they gear up for the season.
