U 11 Football - Great wins at Pairc Ciceim - Also News Letter for U11

The U12 football teams put in great performances last Saturday against Ballymun on their superb all weather pitch. This is a happy hunting ground for the second team as we repeated the perfomance of a few weeks back in a pre-season friendly. We decided to play against the strong breeze in the first half and strong kickouts from Mikey Barrett in goals ensured that we managed posession well in the first half as he regularly found Thomas Lynch, Sean Lonergan and Mark Mitchell who all did extremely well in moving the ball down the wings to Jack Larkin and Jack Hennessy to keep us in contention. Jack Hennessy did particularly well in finding the right pass at the right time so we got vital scores in this period.

It was fairly even at half time but in the second half the lads found their kicking boots with a number of fine scores across the team from Keelan McCormack, Cathal Rainey & Jack Larkin. Adam Reilly and Cathal Rainey took complete control of midfield and completely dominated as they took some fine scores from long range in the second half while Sean O'Donnell mopped up everything on the half back line and took a number of fine scores as a result of surging runs into the oppositions half.
David Lynch took over in goals and played some excellent passes to his teammates which resulted in a number of fine scores further up the pitch. Mikey Barrett moved to defence along with Sam Murphy & Joe Shannon and all did some excellent work in connecting passes to the midfiled and forwards.Jeff Scollard narrowly missed a goal chance mid way through the second half and Killian Jennings was also proving a handful up front. Meanwhile Sam Murphy, Peter Tumelty and John Clifford ensured nothing got by them in the second half.
