Intermediate
Our
intermediate team were beaten in the opening round of the championship by St
John’s, 2-17 to 1-14, in an entertaining contest at Corballa last Saturday
evening. As in the weeks previous, the lads put in a very poor first half
display and trailed 2-14 to 0-5 after 35 minutes, but burst into life in the
closing stages to close the deficit. Indeed, with more time the lads could have
snatched a result. Despite the defeat, they will take encouragement from their
spirited comeback and will look to improve for next Saturday’s vital meeting
with St Patrick’s at the same venue. Throw in is at 7pm on Saturday evening –
your support would be greatly appreciated.
Minor
The
Enniscrone-Kilglass/Easkey minor team lost out to Owenmore Gaels in the first
round of the championship last Thursday. The visitors claimed a deserved 3-9 to
1-10 win, with our depleted squad showing well at times but ultimately coming
up short. The next group fixture is away to Eastern Harps on Thursday week,
August 24th.
U-16
The
Enniscrone/Kilglass-Easkey minor team play St Molaise Gaels at Quigabar on
Monday evening (August 14th) at 7pm. A win will confirm progression
to the semi-final.
U-14
Our U-14s claimed
a facile 14-10 to 1-4 win over Easkey last Friday evening. They have one
remaining game this Friday in Quigabar against Calry/St Joseph’s at 7pm, where
a win will seal a semi-final place. Good luck to everyone.
U-12
Well done to
our U-12 boys on qualifying for the Division Two final after a 0-17 to 0-9
defeat of Tourlestrane at Quigabar last Tuesday evening. The team have a week
of preparation now before they travel to Markievicz Park on Tuesday, August 22nd
for the county final. The game will have a throw in time of 7.45pm with Curry
or St Patrick’s the opposition.
