Tuesday September 07 2010
JOHN RYAN and Padraic Ryan proved too strong for the veterans John Rossiter and Andy Ryan in the 60x30 senior county final played in Garryhill last Saturday night in the first game the two Ryans were on top through out and won 21-12 the second game was a closer encounter but Rossiter and Ryan could never overtake their opponents and with Padraic Ryan serving very well and John Ryan playing some powerful handball around the court they ran out winners 21-14.
