Ballymacelligott v Dromid Pearses– Minor Central Region Div 5
Ballymacelligott 4-11
Dromid Pearses 2-07
Our Minor Gold team played their first game in the Central Region Division 5 away to Dromid Pearses on Monday 24th April.
The first half of this game was an even affair with noting really between the teams and when the first half was played out the scores were tied at 1-04 a piece at the short whistle. The Ballymac goal coming in the 25th minute by Luke Griffin.
Ballymac really kicked into to gear after the break and put in a great team performance to score 3-07 in the second half. The killer burst coming in a three-minute period between 48th and 51st minute with a goal from Ciarán O’Connell and a further two goals coming from Luke Griffin to complete his hat-trick. From here Ballymac closed out the game in comfortable fashion to win by 10 points. In what was great scoring, it must be noted that Ballymac scored 4-10 from play out of the 4-11 scored in total.
Great credit must go to the lads who put the disappointment of the county league final defeat behind them from the previous week and got back to winning ways with an outstanding second half showing. The Gold team now have weeks break as they have a bye week.
