Seniors Win First Point in County League Div 2
Waterville 0 - 06 ....... Kilcummin 0 - 06
The senior team registered their first point in this year's County League. Conditions were blustery and scores were at a premium. At half time Kilcummin led by a single point and Waterville would have to pull out all the stops if they were going to get anything from this encounter. With minutes left in the game it looked like Kilcummin would collect all the spoils. Gearóid O'Sullivan kicked some difficult free but it was the introduction of the experienced Keith Moran which made the crucial difference. He converted two difficult chances with skill and conviction and earned a share of the spoils for his team. Full Report
St. Patrick's Day in Waterville
The inaugral St. Patrick's Day Parade took place in Waterville on Saturday last and was a resounding success. There was a perceived buzz about the village which lasted well into the late hours. Full credit must go to the IRD for the foresight and courage to undertake organising the event. Mick O'Dwyer was the chief guest on the reviewing platform and St. Patrick made an appearance as well.
Members of the Valentia Pipe Band led the parade, which was a colourful one, with numerous floats and marching groups taking part. For more photos go to Local News.
