Senior Hurling League Opener Versus Ballina
Castlebar Mitchels open their league campaign with a home game against Ballina on this Saturday, March 30th @ 5pm in McHale Park. Castlebar V Ballina games are generally close hard fought games and I’ve no reason to believe that this will be any different. Manager Martin Greaney has been working hard getting his Mitchels squad ready and is hoping for a good start to the campaign. We wish them the best of luck and hope that you might come down for a look and give the team your support.

Connaught Senior Club Hurling Cup
Castlebar Mitchels have drawn Oran from Roscommon in the 1st round of the Connaught Senior Club Hurling Cup. The game will be played in Castlebar on Wednesday April 3rd. The Cup this year is on a knockout basis.
