Hard luck to the Roscommon Ladies in their league opener on Sunday losing to Tyrone on a scoreline of 1.15 to 1.12. On a brighter note, Roscommon had 5 starters from Boyle which is a first but great to see the efforts of the club have been recognised. 

Saoirse Wynne, Rosin Wynne (VC) corner back and wing back respectively, Ruth Cox & Caoimhe Cregg in Midfield and Aisling Feely at corner forward - Aisling scoring 3 points. Well done to all!

Hall of Fame 

Congratulations to PJ Keane and Barry Feely on entering the Hall of Fame. PJ spoke of his welcoming received by his adopted club here in Boyle moving from Limerick in the 1970s as an Army officer. He spoke about his fondness for Boyle and the people he made great friends with in the town and surrounds. He also spoke humbly of how himself and Barry were part of the committee, who were pivotal, in the purchasing of the Abbey Park where we are today and how it was bought and paid for in the same year, which in any stretch of the imagination is an extraordinary accomplishment. 

Barry gave us an insight into the street leagues , he used to play in and how he was happier to have PJ on his team for many reasons! Congratulations !
