Craobh Rua Camlocha hurling club last Saturday morning echoed in the “clash of the ash” and the noise of nearly 100 underage hurlers participating in the annual “Richard Hughes Memorial Shield Blitz. It was a day fitting to the memory of the young local boy who, as stated by Chairperson of Craobh Rua Raymond Watters “Will always be remembered by our hurling Club”. Teams from Dungannon County Tyrone, Dundalk County Louth, Keady and the hosting club participated in the event and Craobh Rua would like to thank all those who helped make sure it was an enjoyable sporting occasion for all. All members of participating teams received a special medal for their attendance and Feargal Cooney from Craobh Rua has the special honour of taking the Richard Hughes Memorial Shiled to be kept for a year at his Primary School St Malachy’s Ballymoyer. He received it from Richards father Eugene, brother Kevin and sister Lorna
Club Notes:
Our senior team defeated Middletown in the semi final of the Armagh Junior Championship by a 1-11 to 1-5 scoreline. It was a tough match played in trying conditions. The final is due to be played this Sunday as a curtain raiser to the Senior Hurling Championship finale and Craobh Rua encourage all supporters and gaels to come along and cheer their local hurling team who have worked so hard this year and served this area proud.
