U9 Football - Mar 20th
Due to bad weather, first confessions and teams dropping out the U9 footballers played only their second game of the season on Saturday with a local derby at home to Naomh Mearnog. It was a beautiful morning for football though a stiff breeze did impact on proceeding. All 3 9 man teams gave committed performances and it seems like the training on the all-weather pitch has brought these young players on in leaps and bounds.
All 3 teams won their matches and there were a number of standout performances –Joaquin Shinbach and Craig McGrattan on Team 1, Aaron Lambe-Callaghan and Euan Farquarson on Team 2 and Shane O’Neill and Sean Guiden on Team 3.
Next weekend the U9 hurlers hope to continue on from their great win against Fingallians.
