U14 were defeated by St. Mary's on Monday evening last in Bunnanadden Community Park in the 1st round of the league. They started with a very young team due to a number of players been injured or sick. Some excellent football was played in the first half and were only down by 3 points. In the second half St. Mary's experience and physical dominance took its toll on our young lads. The next game is on Friday next the 21st of April away to St. Molaise Gaels at 7pm. All support for this game would be appreciated.
