Senior Development League
Div 2 Round 3
Ballymacelligott Spa
This Round 3 game was played in Ballymacelligott on Saturday evening the 6th of May.
Prior to the game, a minute’s silence was observed for the late Ellen Clifford. We extend our deepest sympathy to the Clifford and O’Shea Families. We are thinking especially of Ellen’s brother Tom who is a selector with our B team.
After fifteen minutes, Ballymac scored 2-06 and Spa failed to score. Points from Diarmuid Galvin and Michael Herlihy, a goal and a point from Conor Brick, and a goal and three points from Maurice O’Connell gave Ballymac a good cushion going into the second quarter of the first half.
Spa dominated the second quarter of the first half and scored four points to Ballymac one from the boot of Michael Herlihy.
The second half saw Ballymac up the pace and Maurice O’Connell added a point and two more goals. Conor Brick, Skye Lynch, and Brian Cassidy got two more points to give the final score; Ballymac 4-11 to Spa 0-5.
It was good to see Cian Godley come on late in the second half having recovered from an injury earlier in the season. Players that impressed for Ballymac were: Ciaran Brosnan, Diarmuid Galvin, and Eoin Creedon in the backs as well as Cathal Culloty, Maurice O’Connell, and Conor Brick.
Our senior team plays Dingle at home now next weekend
