Sports

Camogie 
Camogie has grown hugely in our school over the past few years. Interest and participation continue to increase and we now have a first year, junior and senior team. This growth reflects the enthusiasm of the students and dedication of the teachers. We have completed in Munster and Tipperary competitions. The first years compete in blitz’s throughout the year. Training every Thursday 4-5pm. 

Equestrian
Our equestrian team, kindly sponsored by Coolmore Stud, trains under the tutelege of staff member Ms. Aoife O'Brien at local venues. The school hosts an equestrian subcommittee which is well-supported by our Parents' Association. We also host our own annual showjumping event each April/May for schools in the region. 

Ladies Football (LGFA)
Ladies football has been going from strength to strength, having won both county titles in Junior and Senior in 2024. The school competes both in Munster and Tipperary competitions every year. First years also compete in blitz’s and challenge matches throughout the year. We have girls playing with us from local clubs, Fethard, Clerihan, St.Pats and Moyle Rovers. We train every Thursday from 4-5pm. 

Gym
In conjunction with Fethard GAA club, we are in the process of furnishing a fully fitted GYM which will be accessible to our students. We also have access to facilities in Fethard Town Park currently. 

Handball
Our junior handball teams train at lunchtimes and take part in regional competitions/blitzes.

Hurling/Football
Both hurling and football enter u15, u17 and u19 Munster competitions. With regular afterschool trainings. 

Rugby
Our rugby teams train regularly and participate in Munster Rugby blitzes.

Soccer
We participate in 1st Year, u15, u17 and u19 Munster soccer competitions, along with u14 and u16 South East Munster competitions played throughout the year. We hold separate junior (1st-3rd) and Senior (4th-6th) trainings on rotation every second week on the FTP astroturf. 

We have a junior indoor 5-a-side soccer league which usually takes place in the winter. 

We have soccer balls available to students at lunchtime where they can kick around and practice their skills. 

Volleyball
PPSS Fethard have competed in all age groups to national level competitions since the early 1970s for girls and slightly later for boys. Our teams typically reach at least semi-final stages of the All-Ireland schools' competition with numerous national titles across the three age categories - 1st/2nd year (Junior), Under 16 (Cadette) and Senior. Training each Wednesday from 4-5pm in the school hall. 
Facilities: Our school has its own Juvenille playing pitch and sports hall. With close connections to Fethard Town Park, our students can enjoy the state-of-the-art facilities on offer there (including gym and wondergful 5G pitch). We are also closely allied with Fethard GAA club with shared access to facilities there and are currently in the process of collaborating with them on the development of a modern gym/fitness studio.
