Youths salvage a point against Shels

GREG YIVERTON's goal one minute into additional time saw Wexford Youths mix the bad with the good as they salvaged a point from a dominant Shelboure F.C. side in this Airtricity Division 1 clash at Ferrycarrig Park on Sunday afternoon last. While Wexford Youths will be very happy to have snatched a point, they will be none too pleased with their display which, after a promising opening 45 minutes, deteriorated to such an extent that Shels must still be wondering why they failed to add to their first-half tally given their dominance through the second period.

• Last-gasp draw felt almost as good as a win

Serious action in store

THIS SATURDAY and Sunday will see Ireland's oldest motorcycle grasstrack race return to its spiritual home of Courtown, Co. Wexford. The Wexford Off-Road Club will host round five of the Motorcycling Ireland Grasstrack championship sponsored by Great Stuff Catering at the north Wexford seaside venue. Action on Saturday will start at 4 p.m. with a series of races for adults and youths on both quads and bikes.

Double final delight

THEY REALISED it was last chance saloon. Ciara O'Connor had just tapped over the lead free in the first minute of injury time to give Wexford their one-point advantage back in this Gala All-Ireland Intermediate camogie championship semi-final. Limerick knew it was now or never to keep their dreams alive. Louise Codd was intent on extinguishing those dreams.

Last evening meet fixed for Bettyville

THE LONG, hot summer comes to an end at Bettyville on Friday next with the last evening meeting of the 2010 horse racing season. With a seven-race card down for decision, the all-flat card could catch many out with an early start time of 4.25 p.m. Preliminary racing lists in some national racing journals shows racing opening at the Wexford town track with a two-year-old maiden over one mile and one hundred yards.
