The Gorey RFC U18.5 Boys continue to make headlines, climbing to the top of the Leinster Premier A League and securing their place in the semi-final playoffs, which will be played at home in the coming weeks.
Fresh from their superb win in the South East Plate Final, the lads carried that momentum into a fiercely contested local derby against rivals Wexford RFC, delivering another performance full of grit, composure, and belief.
In a tense, hard-fought contest that went right down to the wire, it was Rory Cooper who proved the difference, calmly slotting over a difficult kick in the closing moments to secure a dramatic one-point victory.
With Tullow RFC defeating Navan RFC, the result confirmed Gorey’s place at the summit of the table.
While the semi-final opposition is yet to be confirmed, home advantage gives the squad a golden opportunity — and the club will be hoping for a big Clonattin crowd to come out and roar the lads on as they chase a place in a Leinster Premier Final.
