Offaly Schools

Post by Mrbrightside »

I believe both Coláiste Choilm of Tullamore and Coláiste na Sionna of Banagher both beat St Brendan's of Birr in recent challenge games. I know these areas may be experiencing good spells, but surely a school with the size and pick of Birr should be winning these games? Also, what clubs are represented on the 3 teams? Finally, is there an outstanding reason why Gallen Cs, Ferbane has no hurling?

Concerning very concerning...when Offaly are going well we traditionally need our stronghold of hurling going well which would take up most students of St.Brendans.
I believe some of there teams are playing in the B championship it was only about 10 years ago they were competing at the highest level v Richie power,cha fitzpatrick and Richie hogan it really does show you where we are at.
I know there U14 team beat some strong teams from Killenny and Wexford in the A championship so maybe they are a good bit stronger and will be competing at the highest level in 4 years time.
