The new club website was officially launched at a function in the clubhouse over the weekend. To access the new site now, click on http://naas.sportsmanager.ie. This will change to www.naasgaa.ie in the very near future. Also launched was the brand new 2008 club directory which can be picked up from any section or from behind the bar in the clubhouse.
Championship hurling continues this week with the Intermediates playing Confey in Celbridge on Thursday 26th at 7.30pm and the Junior hurlers will play Leixlip in Kilcock on Friday 27th also at 7.30pm. Best of Luck to the Kildare hurling team in Round 1 of the Christy Ring Cup which takes place in St. Conleths Park on Saturday 28th at 3.30pm.
The Naas Intermediate Camogie team lost out to Athy in the summer League semi final played last week. It was a tough match and the Naas girls done well against a strong Athy team. We wish the team the best in their forthcoming semi final of the Intermediate Shield against Leixlip. The Club and especially the camogie section send best wishes to Amy O’Hara and Clionadh MacSweeney who will play for the Kildare Junior Camogie team in London on June 28th.

Next Saturday 28th sees all roads leading to Naas as teams from Cork, Limerick, Galway, Kilkenny, Tipperary, Wexford, Dublin and Laois converge to take part in our Annual U10 Hurling Tournament.

Please support our two Naas teams involved.
Well done to the Naas West U10 football community games team who defeated Old Bawn from Tallaght by a score line of 2-13 to 0-2 at home last Tuesday 28th to progress to the Leinster semi final on the 5th of July.
