Our u 16s entertained Austin Stacks at home in Round 5 of the central Region Division one on Monday night 29th April. Despite missing a few regulars , our lads matched the Stacks boys for the first 15 minutes , just trailing 0 03 Pts to 0 01 pt . However a good move by the Stacks boys which lead to a goal proved a turning point in this Game as it seemed to spur on the Rockies . Our boys played some lovely football but were unlucky not to have some more scores on the board , but at the interval, Stacks were well in control.
There was no stopping the Rockies as they pushed on , and some of their scores were top class . Our boys tried to the end and never gave up . Final score: Austin Stacks: 7-15 to Ballymac 1-03.
Ballymac can be proud of their performances in Division one (Central Region) winning 3 games out of 5 . The team have made great progress since the start of the season, and are looking forward to an A final in the Castleisland District league next week . We play in the county league in early June and with a panel of 25 , we look forward with confidence to participating in this competition.
We thank all parents for their support & thanks to Stephen O’Brien,Liam Sweeney, Mike Broderick and Eddie O’ Connell for having the team in good shape throughout this Competition.
