Handball action goes according to script

The weekend’s handball action went according to the script, as all the top seeds survived their respective DALKIA Senior Singles Championship clashes to confirm quarter-final spots.

Despite the current refereeing saga in Offaly, Crinkle hosted three entertaining games yesterday afternoon, with the top two current seeds, Cork’s Tony Healy and Dublin’s Eoin Kennedy, in action. Healy saw off the challenge of Mayo’s Joe McCann in a well-fought encounter, 21-13, 21-8, while Kennedy defeated Kerry’s Dominick Lynch after a tough battle, 21-7, 21-7.
