There was no fairytale ending for our senior hurlers in Parnell Park on Sunday, as Syls came up against a superb Commercials side in the Dublin Premier Intermediate Hurling Final. A blistering first half from the Rathcoole men left a mountain to climb, but despite going down to 14 men, our lads battled bravely and showed real heart to keep fighting until the very end. 💙💚

While the result didn’t fall our way, the club is immensely proud of this group — their commitment, spirit and journey to the final have been outstanding. This team has given us brilliant moments this season and plenty to look forward to in 2026. 🔵🟢

Meanwhile, our Minor A Footballers booked their place in the Championship Final after a thrilling 0-19 to 0-16 extra-time win earlier today. In a point-for-point battle, Syls came agonisingly close to sealing it in normal time - a tight-angled effort drifting just wide at the death - but brilliant teamwork and composure saw this talented group get over the line. They now face Na Fianna in the final in two weeks’ time.🏐🔵🟢

There was also plenty of drama up on the cliffs in Balbriggan, where our Minor B Footballers produced a gutsy comeback to beat O’Dwyers. Leading 1-5 to 0-7 at half-time, Syls were rocked in the third quarter and trailed by six, but a storming final 15 minutes saw them hit 2-3 to seal a 3-10 to 1-13 win.

Roll on the two championship finals 💪🏐🔵🟢
