Winter Superleague 2020: Week 9


Coming up this Saturday, the 7th of March at the Stinger Dome

  • 6pm – Goose Village Blackrocks (Men’s) vs Concordia Warriors (Men’s)
  • 7pm – Field D – Griffintown Gaels (Ladies) vs Verdun Vikings (Ladies)
  • 7pm – Field C – Goose Village Blackrocks (Ladies) vs Concordia Warriors (Ladies)
  • 8pm – St Henri Harps vs Concordia Warriors

Week nine of the 2020 Winter Superleague starts at 6pm this Saturday, the 7th of March, in the Concordia Stinger Dome, and it’s the last chance saloon for a number of our teams, as the race tightens and the margin for error gets even smaller.
First we have the Goose Village Blackrocks lining up against the Concordia Warriors in the men’s football. With both teams still in the hunt for the second finals spot, the winner here will have the easiest path to the final, but by no means will the outcome be certain. Expect no quarter asked for, or given in this game.
Next we have a ladies football double header Griffintown Gaels Vs Verdun Vikings on Field D and Goose Village Blackrocks Vs Concordia Warriors on Field C. The permutations at play here are too numerous to mention – the only things that are certain are: if the Blackrocks win, they are into the final, and if the Gaels lose, they’ll be out of contention. Anything could happen, including a continuation of this four way split for the finals. Both these games should be spectacular, and with so much on the line, why wouldn’t they be?
Finally, it’s N.D.G. St Henri Harps taking on the Concordia Warriors in the hurling. With PSC out of the running and Na Fianna already in the finals, this is the match that will make or break the Warriors debut hurling season. A win here, and then they’re one step closer to a place in the finals, a draw will make things harder, but not impossible, and a loss will put an end to things. It’s not complicated, but that doesn’t mean it’s easy, taking points off the Harps has been a tall order all season – but the Warriors didn’t get this far by being reserved. Expect this clash to be one of the highlights of the winter hurling season!

Winter Superleague 2020: Week 8


Coming up this Saturday, the 29th of Feburary at the Stinger Dome

  • 6pm – Verdun Vikings (Men’s) vs Griffintown Gaels (Men’s)
  • 7pm – Griffintown Gaels (Ladies) vs Goose Village Blackrocks (Ladies)
  • 8pm – N.D.G. Na Fianna Rouges vs. PSC Cu Chulainn

Week eight of the 2020 Winter Superleague starts at 6pm this Saturday, the 29th of February, in the Concordia Stinger Dome, and it’s do or die time for a number of our teams, at the league enters its final stages.
First we have the Verdun Vikings lining up against the Griffintown Gaels in the men’s football. A win for the Gaels here will stamp their ticket for the final, leaving the rest of the table to fight for the remaining place. Meanwhile, the Vikings are at their last chance saloon, they need to win both their remaining games and hope that all the other results land just right to stand a chance of making the final. It’s a long road, but they’ll need to take their first step here.
Next we have the Griffintown Gaels going against the Goose Village Blackrocks in the ladies’ football. No team has pulled far enough ahead of the pack to be thinking about the finals just yet, but a win here would strengthen the Blackrocks case as they would go top of the table. A win for the Gael would truly set the cat amongst the pigeons, as all four teams would be tied on four points each, and all teams would have two games left to play. All still left to play for, no matter what happens.
Finally, it’s N.D.G. Na Fianna Rouges taking on PSC Cu Chulainn in the hurling. PSC can no longer make the finals, but that doesn’t mean they can’t have a say in who does. A win here for Na Fianna would put them into the final, no matter what happens. But a PSC win makes it a three horse race, with the Harps, the Warriors, and Na Fianna all capable of making the finals. Riveting stuff, either which way!

And while the ladies’ football is on, there is a men’s’ Football training session from 7pm to 8pm on Field C.

Winter Superleague 2020: Week 7


Coming up this Saturday, the 22nd of Feburary at the Stinger Dome

  • 6pm – Concordia Warriors vs N.D.G. Na Fianna Rouges
  • 7pm – Concordia Warriors (Men’s) vs Verdun Vikings (Men’s)
  • 8pm – Concordia Warriors (Ladies) vs Verdun Vikings (Ladies)

Week seven of the 2020 Winter Superleague starts at 6pm this Saturday, the 22nd of February, in the Concordia Stinger Dome, and will see the Concordia Warriors take to the field in all three fixtures.
First we have small ball action as the Concordia Warriors take on N.D.G Na Fianna Rouges. Both the Warriors and the Rouge as a point off the top of the table, so both sides will go at it hard knowing they can go top of the table with a win here.
Next we have the Warriors going against the Verdun Vikings in the men’s football. These sides are tied on a win each but with the table as tight as it is, either side could jump into second place with a win here and position themselves nicely for the run in to the end of the season. High drama and fantastic football surely awaits in this fixture.
Finally, its the Warriors and the Vikings again, but this time in the Ladies’ Football. The Vikings need a win here to keep themselves in the race, while the Warriors have been in fine fettle and will be looking for a win here to put them top of the table, which should make for a cracking game.

And while the men’s football is on, there is a Ladies’ Football training session from 7pm to 8pm on Field C.
