U16 Boys
Our u 16 s played Ardfert in round Two of the County League Division Two in Ballymac on Wednesday night.
Our boys got off to a great start and looked really sharp in the first fifteen minutes , we we were leading 1 03 to 0 02 after this quarter. Our goal came from Adam Joy a fine individual effort .
A beautiful point from the left boot of Donal Daly put us further ahead . Points followed from MauriceO’Connell, James Kenny & Adam Sheehy and when Mark Brick struck for Goal , we were leading by 2 07 to 1 02 at the interval .
In the second half we continued to push on with a great point from Adam Sheehy. Ardfert didn’t give up and were soon back in the game with two goals and now we knew we were in for a grand stand finish . A great burst up the field by Jamie Sugrue, led to him slotting the ball over the bar for an inspirational score to give the boys a lift . Ardfert kept the pressure on and it was down to three points on the 60 th minute .
Ardfert reduced to two soon after , but when Donal Daly raced up field to score another point , we looked to be out of sight into injury time . However Ardfert replied with another point to leave two in it again . In the last attack with six minutes into injury time , Ardfert scored a goal to give them a one point lead . Ballymac were so unfortunate to loose this game , as this was their best performance of the year . Every player can be proud of their performance and a repeat of this performance will have us competing for silverware shortly . Special mention must go to Jamie Sugrue, Adam Sheehy, Denis Brosnan, Adam Joy,Brian Godley, Conor Brick & Sean Horan . Well done to all and thanks to all parents for their support and to Ardfert for a fine sporting Game . Well done to Ardfert .
Our next game up for our U16s is away to Fossa on Wednesday 10th July.
