Juvenile/under 16's

Last Wednesday Night the Juveniles were unlucky to lose 4-8 to 3-7 against a Mostrim/Clonbroney side. the lads have been playing very well this year but are not getting the luck in games however they are showing good heart and commitment despite being without some key players through injury and hopefully the results will start to come.

Minors

Our minor team suffered defeat against Western Gaels in the league last Tuesday Night in Michael Fay Park. Western Gaels were totally dominant in the first half and were in front 1-9 to 0-2 at the break. However our lads put in a most gutsy second half performance to eventually lose out 1-13 to 1-8. It was difficult to pick out any player who impressed in the opening half. However a much better second half performance saw Hugo Carey, Cian Finnan, Robbie Clarke and Cian Kavanagh come to the fore. Jamie Masterson grabbed our goal. Shane Kenny was the dominant figure for Gaels while Stephen Farrell, John Hand and Iarlaith O'Sullivan also impressed.

Senior Championship

Well done to Denis and the Senior team for their good win against Drumlish in the first round of this years championship. It was great to see some of last years Minors playing in the team and performing well. Well done lads.
