Friday night saw the end of the 2015 Hurling season with the U8s & U10s end of year presentation in the club rooms. A great evening was enjoyed by all the young lads with pizza & chips kindly supplied by Pizzapoint. 2015 was a land mark year for the young St Peters hurlers who, thanks to Manager Chris Rooney, ably assisted by Dermot Donnelly, Rory McIntyre, Kieran Doyle & Liam Boyle, ensured that the boys had more games than any in previous years. With the U8s going almost undefeated throughout the year and the U10s really challenging the top teams in Down & Antrim the standard of underage hurling in Warrenpoint has taken massive leaps forward in 2015. Cumann Pheadaír Naofa has been one of the only teams in Down to have taken part in every “all county Blitz” this year reaping the benefit of more games as the results have shown, most notably with victories against some strong teams from the ‘Ards and for their gallant displays against tougher opposition. Chris presented everyone with a medal for their wins in Portaferry, Ballycran & Liatroim.
In a novel and kind gesture the management held a raffle for all the boys, where everyone came away with a prize of sorts and as the boys polished off the last of the chips, Chris thanked all the parents for their support throughout the year and ensured the lads that if they continued to improve that it wouldn’t be long before several of them would be changing their jerseys to the red & black in years to come.
