Cup Action

It was a busy weekend in Cup and League action especially for our younger club sides. The u12a side had to battle hard in the u12 Connacht Cup to defeat Athlone based Club Hodson Bay Celtic 2-1 in Oranmore on Sunday afternoon. The goals were courtesy of Cillian Costello and Rian Donoghue in a fine win which puts the lads into the last 16.

The u12b lads also faced Athlone opposition away on Saturday but they went down 1-0 to St Francis fc despite playing well.

Not to be outdone the younger u12c side defeated Westport club Fahy Rovers 1-0 in a tough game with Yassin Abdelmagied getting the important score.

There were two mixed results for our two u14 club sides in u14 connacht action. The u14a side travelled to Westport Utd and defeated their u13a side fielding as u14b in the u14 connacht cup on a 2-1 scoreline with strikes from Darragh Conneely and a fine winner with 2 minutes remaining from Mikie Grealy.

The u14 b side meanwhile went down 3-1 to a good Fahy Rovers side.

Girls / Ladies Teams

The u19 Girls battled bravely but went down to a physically stronger Corrib Celtic side in Oranmore on Sunday. Sincere thanks to Derek Duffy and all in OranPrecast for their renewed assistance for our girls coaching programme as our girls numbers continue to grow rapidly.

Adult Teams

The u21s and Junior Premier sides had a good workout on Sunday in a close competitive game. The Junior Premier lads play Corrib Celtic next Sunday in a crucial game. We wish them well.
