Are all the county lads now back in with the clubs now?

None of us are getting out of here alive, so please stop treating yourself like an after thought. Ea

County season is done but it'll be interesting to see if many go out to the States this summer. Quite a few went out last year.

On the Championship, I fully believe when Dunloy's run ends it's Loughgiel coming behind them and think there will be some serious battles between the two over the next few seasons.

Dunloy players on the go constantly with club final etc. Could probably do with a break.

Think it will be a few years before Dunloy are caught. Sadly, for the county, there is only 1 club capable of doing so. Not a good situation. Having said that, great work going on with hurling in many NA juvenile teams.

That's true to a point but my young nephew is on a team that's working hard and 'competing' but yes the NA teams are pretty good

We were invited to play naomh padraig in armoy a few weeks back at u10.5, best team ive seen at that age group by a considerable margin.

couple of fresh faces to add to the squad this year to keep things ticking

We ended up holding onto a top 6 place even after getting beat yesterday in Ballycastle which is a marked improvement for us considering we've been in the relegation mix for a few years now.

I'll be better preparation for us going into the championship even if we'll be sick of the sight of our neighbours by the end of the year.

Let no-one say the best hurlers belong to the past. They are with us now, and better yet to come

Is it U10.5 or U11.5?

Jonkunlon

I would imagine he is referring to U11.5. They are on a different planet to the rest.

Yeah they won a tournament in Na Magha at the weekend, think it's just a very strong group as not sure NP as strong at other age groups. Fair play to them regardless

St Olcans Armoy won the Cumman Na Bunscoil North Antrim competition about two weeks ago. Some achievement for a school with 50-60 pupils. Hope springs eternal.

Hopefully they'll find one or two more Clutes from the area!

Edit, Ports are in the bottom section even though on a three way tie they'd a better scoring difference to the other two, Mcquillans got the 6th spot on the worst score difference of them, Ports and Ruairi O'gs.

Must be other factors at play.
