I would like to thank all the parents who at short notice responded to my email regarding the U14 game at The North Haven Festival this Saturday or Sunday. We don’t have enough players for either day to play so we will give it a miss. Thanks for all your dedication to St Patrick’s this past season. Take a well deserved break and we will see you at our end of season social pretty soon. Stay tuned. Paddy
