HURLING    RESULTS Torthaí / Match Results: COUNTY UNDER 12 HURLING LEAGUE: The Causeway Under 12 hurlers had a good win over their western neighbours, Ballyheigue, on Friday evening last. The game was hard fought and some fine skill was displayed over the hour: full marks to both teams for sporting endeavour. In the end the superior strength of the maroon lads won the day. Well done also to the Seasiders who battled gamely to the last blast of Michael Leen's feadóg. Final Score: Baile Thaidhg: 3-5; Ballyheigue: 0-3.  Our thanks to Michael Leen from the Ballyheigue Club who refereed the match.

UNDER 14:  The Causeway U14 hurlers had a great win against Kenmare on Friday evening last. The superior strength of rhe North Kerry boys proved too much for the lads of Neidín who played their hearts out 'till the end. A lot of skilful play was seen on both sides and a sporting encounter witnessed by the spectators. Well done all! Final Score: Causeway: 6-11; Kenmare: 2-2. UNDER 16 HURLING LEAGUE DIV.1: B/heigue V Causeway: In a tough hard close encounter the under 16s of An Tóchar had the narrowest of victories over the hurlers from the white sands of Ballyheigue. Michael Burkett's braves gave their all but were denied the laurels i ndeireadh na dála and the last whistle came too soon. An Tóchar: 4-7; Baile 'Thaidhg: 4-6. Joy for Causeway; heartbreak for Kerry Head! Ballyheigue's Shane Dunne played outstandingly, won many a ball in front of the Causeway goal, was truly a thorn in the winners' side and deserved the mantle of ''laoch an chluiche''. Cian O'Sullivan in the no. 3 position and Mikey 'Halloran in the right corner of the last line of defence stood their ground like men inspired and repelled a huge amount of maroon bombardment while stylish winger Tony 'Mahony did no favours for the opposing forwards. Tommy Barrett was the best of the Causeway boys until his retirement through injury and Rickie Keane was in good form until his ''imeacht gan filleadh'' in the second half. Réiteoir: Patrick Corridan.

UNDER 16 HURLING LEAGUE DIV.2: Na Stacaigh V Ard Fhearta: In their first game of the season the Austin Stack Club boys found the going difficult against the more experienced St. Brendan's team. The Tralee lads gave good battle and had they been able to take all their chances they might have been neck'n'neck at the 3/4 stage when St. Brendan's pulled away. Ardfert availed of most opportunities and won well. Wing forward D. Casey was in in top gear throughout the game and D. Costello turned defence into attack on numerous occasions. John Hussey was sound and in full control in the full-back line. Fearghal Mac Conmara and Greg Ó Dúlaing gave of their best in the middle of the pitch for the Stacaigh. Cian Mac Gearailt (0-2) and Brian Óg Caball, with good running off the ball by Jonathan Ó Laoi (0-1), strove with might and mane to penetrate a tight defence. Lorcán Seymour played with flair and skill, particurlarly in the first half, and was aided by Floyd Ó Beoláin. Bhí an lá ag buachaillí Ard Fhearta. ST. BRENDAN'S: D.
