They think its all over.....it is not, its a game of two halves.

St Sylvesters U13B 4-5, St Finians U13B 4-4 On Sat 23rd Feb 2013 I witnessed one of the best comebacks ever, up there with Liverpool v AC Milan in the 2005 champions final or Dublin v Longford in the 2008 O'Byrne cup final (Dublin scoring two goals in the last few mins of play), well that's the special game we had on Sat.

Whitehall keeper keeps Syls at bay

U13 grading St Sylvesters u13b 1-6 Whitehall Colmcille u13b 7-7 It would be a bit unusual to start it off about the opposition . . . so i will. Whitehalls keeper had "one of those games" that dreams are made of, and if Dubs heroes John o'Leary or Stephen Cluxton were watching they would know that Dublin will be in safe hands in the future, as he was saving shot after shot pulling the ball out of the air heading into the top corner nothing was stopping this young man, as he made 10/12 unbelievable goal scoring saves and he made a difference in the final score.

U13Bs tough start at Ballyboughal

U13B Grading St Peters Bboughal 8-6 v St Sylvesters 2-0 While Syls suffered defeat in this game the scoreline didn’t really represent what happened on the pitch. Bboughal started with all guns blazing and took an early 1-4 lead. It was a close first half with both teams finding the conditions on the field difficult to say the least.

U12 hurlers reach Camaint Final

Well done to St Sylvesters u12 hurling team who reached the Final of the Division 2 Camaint Cup last Saturday in Parnell Park.

Throughout the competition the lads show great heart and teamwork combined with no little skill. Well done lads, we are all proud of you. Keep up the good hurling!’ - Eugene

Thanks to U12 coaches

Hello Chairman, On Wednesday evening last, while attending the weekly under 12 football training in old Malahide rugby ground, my son took unwell and fainted. Thankfully he has totally recovered, which was aided I'm sure by the excellent response of all the coaching staff present that evening. I was alerted immediately and an ambulance was called, which duely arrived and took care of our son. Both my wife and I would just like to express our sincere thanks to all of the under 12 coaching staff, Ernie, Jimmy, Des and any others present that I have not mentioned, for their prompt response and the level of care that they provided for our son that evening. Regards and Thanks, Paul and Niamh

U12s lose norrowly to Vincents

U12F Div1 St Sylvesters 3-06 St Vincents 3-09 This was a keenly contested game with both sides giving 100 per cent. Despite missing a number of players the team that was picked did the club proud.

U12 footballers at 'Stade de Bridgefild'

On a Sunny evening in the 'stade de Bridgefild' St Sylvester's U12's took on St Finians. The first 10 mins was tight and then flood gates opened. 3 goals and 2 points scored by midfield wizard Liam 'Messi' shalloe and a solid up and down the field performance by Sean 'the engine' O'Donnell meant that on this day Syls would be hard to beat.
