What a fantastic morning our u6's had earlier in Mooncoin GAA and Camogie Club for their annual u6 Intercounty blitz.

66 teams took part in the tournament with over 650 boys and girls all togging out for their club, most for them for the very first time. 👏

We played games against Passage, Kilrossanty and Carrick Swan, winning all 3 matches but most importantly all kids getting game time and having loads of fun. Lots of our boys and girls made their debut for Portlaw today and we couldn't be prouder of them. 🔵🟡

A huge congrats to Fergal and all at Mooncoin GAA for running such a fantastic tournament. We are already looking forward to next year.

✨Only one more sleep to go until this years Easter Hurling Final✨
