Kilcock Canoe Polo Club

Demons on the home run for 3 in a Row

It seems to some that Demons will not be in the position to take the Irish Open for the 3rd year in a row but those people are not the best at statistics, team spirit and what Kilcock Canoe Polo Club are about. The Demons record speaks loudly , 3 years in a row Club Champions of Ireland at Canoe Polo and 2 years in a row Winners of the Irish Open.
Powered by ISUZU, the Demons won their first match on Saturday morning against Kamikaze 10 -0. Late on in the morning they met Muppets and beat them easily 10 – 2. After a light lunch Demons met the Dutch team , Rebels and won 6 -1 . Later on in the afternoon they met Aberfan and after a great match played by both teams, they drew 6 – 6. Demons finished top of their group ahead of Aberfan, Rebels, Muppets and Kamikaze.Tomorrow Demons will play WWKC and Dragons ( or otherwise known as Carnage) in the morning. The outlook is for sunny weather tomorrow and you would be in good company if you looked towards ISUZU power for some good betting.

Saturday

Well what a weekend we had in Galway City. Rob and his crew said that the sun would shine on us and he was right. It was a glorious weekend with sunshine, good company, good organisation (except that the competition ran about 1 hour late against the timetable) but it was compensated with the weather , live music and a barbecue on the Saturday evening .

A great time was had by all at Charleroi, Belgium this weekend. A brilliantly run competition with competitors from near and far. A total of 72 teams competed in this competiton including 34 Div 1 teams and 16 Div 2.
Well Done Demons and Pyranahs. Demons finished 15th and Pyranahs finished 8th. They've all earned their sleep-in today, especially their manager Peter Fitzgerald. Enjoy the sunshine!

Last weekend some of our Senior Players travelled to France to compete in the 9th International Tournament of Pas de Calais with their Manager Peter Fitzgerald .

The Senior Men finished in 4th place.
In the Under 21 Section our second team (young lads) finished in 5th place.

The first competition of 2008 was a great success for two of the Kilcock Junior teams.

Our second team Devils were pipped on goal difference for a place in the final so had to settle for 3rd place. UCPC took 2nd. Kilcock Devils consisted of Shane Walsh, Gareth Cheasty, Chris Morash, Gareth Kenna, Ian Kennedy & David Mongey.
