Senior: Lorrha are awaiting the draw for the last 16 of the County Championship. This game will be played after the divisional championships have been completed and depending on Tipperary's fate this weekend, it would appear we won't be playing until September.

Lorrha led 0-10 to 0-3 at half time with second goal goals from Christopher Fogarty and Kevin Hough sealing the win. Lorrha's final group game is against Kildangan where a win will see us straight into the semi-final.

Minor: The Minor hurlers next game is against Burgess on Thursday, 14th August in Cloughjordan at 6.30pm with our final match against Borrisokane due to take place the following week.

Under 14: Hard luck to the U14's who lost to Portroe in the North 'C' Hurling Championship final last Friday evening.
