Week seven of the superleague sees men’s and lades’ football and hurling action, starting at 7pm on Monday the 11th of July, at Vanier College.
First we have the Goose Village Blackrocks against the Griffintown Gaels where the Blackrocks will be looking to build on the momentum from their last game and take two points off the Gaels. The Gaels, feeling the Vikings snapping at their heels, would relish the chance to put some more daylight between the two sides, and must feel that with their current form they can do just that.
Next we have hurling, where at the third time of asking, can Na Fianna best PSC, or will it be another feather in PSCs cap as they make it three in a row? There’s not much time left for the rouge to turn this around, but the Cus won’t be obliging.

Week six of the 2022 summer superleague saw the ladies’ Blackrocks best the Vikings, and in the men’s football the Vikings saw off the Gaels.
MVPs:
Ladies’ Football: Ryan Byrd (Vikings), Jillian Simpsons (Blackrocks)
Men’s Football: Damien Conneely (Vikings), Neil O’Brien (Gaels)

Week six of the Superleague falls on July the 4th. While the Americans are celebrating their exploding Christmas, there’ll be fireworks of a different kind in Vanier, as the Verdun Vikings take on the Griffintown Gaels in men’s football and the Verdun Vikings line out against the Goose Village Blackrocks in ladies’ football, starting at 7pm.
First up in men’s football the Vikings are looking for their first win of the season, two narrow losses on the trot might lead to frustration in the Vikings camp, but if there’s a better target to work that frustration out on than the Griffintown Gaels, we’ve not heard of it. Taking points of the Gaels here would put the Vikings right back in the mix. The Gaels will be looking to use this opportunity to extend their lead at the top to four points, and from there hold that spot until the end of the season. It’ll be hard to dislodge them if they can build up that kind of a buffer from the chasing teams.
Next is ladies’ football, the Blackrocks are looking to jump start their season, currently languishing at the bottom of the table, they’d relish the chance to make up some of the distance between them and second placed Verdun Vikings. The Vikings will see last weeks game against the Gaels as an opportunity missed, so this game provides an opportunity to make up ground in their chase of the Gaels, and with the Blackrocks in an unusual slump, this could well be the opening they’ve been looking for.
Both these games promise to be very entertaining; and we hope you will join us for week 6 of the 2022 Summer Superleague
