U16 Leinster boys take Interprovincial title

Leinster U16’s with no less than 8 Pembroke players involved, took the Interprovincial title at Newpark last weekend. Captained by David Kane, they remained unbeaten, a 1-0 win over Ulster on Friday with Jack Ryan on the scoresheet secured the title with Ulster only able to respond with a draw in the Sunday fixture.  In the U18’s Kirk Shimmons was part of a Leinster squad who were pipped by Ulster in the final game – the Ulstermen coming back from 2-0 to take the tie 3-2 in dramatic fashion.
