Week two of the superleague is over and the league is slowly taking shape, but there’s still plenty to play for. Starting off we saw the remaining two ladies teams in action, with the Verdun Vikings going toe to toe with the Griffintown Gaels. Both sides showed grit and determination, but eventually the quality of the Gaels side shone through to give them a five-point victory.
Next, we had our very first hurling fixture, with N.D.G. Na Fianna Rouges taking on PSC Cu Chulainn. The scores were tight in the first half, as both teams took a while to find their stride, but after the break it was PSC who got there first, turning on the pressure and pulling away for an impressive twenty-six-point victory.
Finally, the last fixture saw the Verdun Vikings and the Concordia Warriors meet to finish off the first round of men’s football. The Warriors showed early promise and went into the second half with command of the game, but an impressive rally from the Vikings turned the tide and eventually led to the Vikings winning out by a margin of twenty points.

Week two of the superleague sees a return to a full card of fixtures this Saturday, the 5th of March at the Concordia Stinger Dome, starting at 6pm.
First up we have Ladies Football, with the Verdun Vikings taking on the Griffintown Gaels. With the Goose Village Blackrocks having already put points on the board and with the season being so short, the teams here will know that this is going to be an important opportunity to put themselves in contention for a spot in the final. Both these teams have supplemented their core of experienced players with fresh talent so expect this match to go down to the wire.
Our inaugural hurling game of the season is the middle fixture, with the N.D.G. Na Fianna Rouges and PSC Cu Chulainn taking to the field for the first in their three-game series. With these teams being complete redrafts due to the split in hurling and camogie for this winter league, both are stacked with talent. The deciding factor here will be which team starts to gel first, as once either side gets into full flow, they’ll be hard to stop. This is a historic game, and not to be missed
Finally, we wrap things up with the last men’s game of the first round, as the Verdun Vikings line up against the Concordia Warriors. Much like the ladies’ game at the start of the evening, these teams know the chase is on, and with the Griffintown Gaels currently perched on the top of men’s league, a win here will be essential in keeping pace with them. These two sides should be very evenly matched, with emerging talent playing alongside grizzled veterans, all of which promises a fine display of football to wrap things up for Week 2.

Week one of the superleague is over and we’ve had two fine games to start us off. In Men’s Football, Griffintown Gaels and Goose Village Blackrocks set the standard for the superleague going forward, with a hard fought contest, with the Gaels managing to hold on and take a six point win over a battling Blackrocks.
In Ladies’ Football, a similar story played out, with the Concordia Warriors having a strong start to a season and keeping a normally imperious Blackrocks within touching distance, but couldn’t quite close the gap, giving the Blackrocks a narrow five point win.
