Our u 16s travelled to Ardfert to take on the locals in round 4 of the central region , Division one on Monday night last 22nd April.
Playing with the wind in the first half , we started impressively and were 1 -02 ahead after 10 mins , our goal coming from Bryan Godley . Ardfert got the next two points , but our boys were unlucky not to be further ahead with some good defending from Ardfert. Then Adam Kelly hit the net , Adam Joy with a sweet strike from a 45 for a point and 3 further points shortly after by Donal Daly , we were looking good with a lead of 2 07 to 1 03 at the interval.
Playing against the wind in the second half , we were rattled early on when Ardfert hit for two early goals to cut the deficit to the minimum . However our boys showed great resilience and took the game to Ardfert and points from Adam Joy & Donal Daly seemed to galvanise the team . The introduction of Gary Lynch, Mark O’Connor and James Kenny , really spurred on the team , Mark and James outstanding in defence .The industrious Sean Horan had the final point of the game to seal a Ballymac win on a scoreline of 3-11 to 3 -05 .
Others to impress were Kieran Slattery, James Bailey, Denis Brosnan, Bryan Godley , Donal Daly and Adam Kelly . Congrats to the team on a brilliant display, thanks to all parents who supported us on the night . Thanks to Ardfert for a sporting game .
