On the playing fields the Club enjoyed mixed success. The minors had a well merited win over Michael Glavey’s on Saturday evening in the Abbey Park. This team is currently top of the table and it will have no further game until after the exam season.
The McGovern Directional Drilling senior team went down to a good fast and focussed Elphin side at Boyle home on Sunday in the O'Rourke Cup (more details later).

Boyle U10's represented Boyle very well at the Go Games Blitz on
24/4/2010 in Hyde Park. A total of 4 games were played 9-a-side, 10
minutes a half. Boyle won 3 and lost one (no score was kept by
management or referees ). All the management team would like to thank
the players for their attendance and behaviour but a big word of
thanks to all the parents who drove and gave players lifts to the
blitz and supported the team in great numbers and were a huge help on
the day. K.K. (I was told by a parent that the Blitz was run in exemplary fashion, which is great to hear T.C.)
Boyle Ladies Club;
The ladies suffered a heart-breaking one point defeat away to Four Roads on Saturday evening, having hauled back a nine point half time deficit. They await details of their remaining group game against Strokestown.
