Intermediate
Our
intermediate team secured a vital win in the Intermediate Championship last
Saturday evening when they defeated St Patrick’s by two points, 0-15 to 0-13,
in their final group three game. This was an impressive display for the most
part, particularly in the first half where the team established a 0-11 to 0-5
half-time lead. Despite losing their way for a time in the second half, they
continued to battle and secured a deserved win. Progression to the knockout
stages now hinges on the outcome of the final group game between St Patrick’s
and St John’s in two weeks’ time, with a St John’s win ensuring our place in
the quarter-finals. The team continue training this week with an Abbott Cup
fixture to look forward to on Friday week against Tourlestrane.
Junior B
On Sunday
morning last we had the welcome return of our Junior B team to championship
action. Despite a 1-17 to 0-6 loss away to St Molaise Gaels, it was great to
see several faces return to don the black and amber for the first time in a
while. The squad should be further bolstered for next Sunday’s fixture away to
Calry/St Joseph’s at 1pm on Sunday.
Minor
The
Enniscrone-Kilglass/Easkey minor team play Eastern Harps in their second A championship
game on Thursday evening at 7pm in Keash.
U-16
The Enniscrone/Kilglass-Easkey minor team were unfortunate to
lose out to St Molaise Gaels in the second round of the A championship last
Monday evening, 6-12 to 3-15. Having put themselves in the driving seat with
five minutes to go, the visitors finished stronger to claim the spoils. The
team are still in with a good chance of making the semi-final stage – that will
depend on the outcome of the final round of fixtures this week.
U-14
Our U-14s suffered
a first B championship loss last Friday evening when they lost out to Calry/St
Joseph’s by nine points, 4-12 to 3-6 at Quigabar. After showing great spirit to
claw the deficit back to a single point with five minutes to play, the visitors
showed their composure late on the extend their advantage once again and win
out. With two wins from three games, our lads now enter the shield competition.
Fixtures remain TBC.
U-12
Our U-12
boys have a big evening ahead on Tuesday night when they play Curry in the
Division Two county final in Markievicz Park at 7.30pm. The team has performed
brilliantly all year and will hope to finish their campaign with some
silverware. Please travel to support this great bunch of lads and shout them
on!
