Registration night
Thanks to all our new and existing Bord na nÓg members who turned out to our organised registration night last Wednesday night.
Details will go shortly to all involved and we can get our season started. Best of luck to you all.
Meanwhile, some of our teams have begun training all ready.
Also, congratulations to all of our members who have been picked to play on their Schools teams. Keep up the good work.
Harsh lesson for young Saints!
A poor opening 15 minutes cost St Martins minor footballers badly in this second round league match played in Coon. Trailing by 1-06 to 0-1 at that stage the difference at the break was 2-7 to 1-3.
A storming second half performance couldn’t retrieve the game with a late lisdowney goal being crucial as the early concession of scores in the first proved to be the difference. Final score 3-11 to 3-6.
Team: Eoin Shortall, David Healy, Alan Kelly(c), Colm O’Neill, Robert Reid, Paddy Brennan, Shane Kinsella, John Joe Kelly, James Callanan, Jack Dowling, Adrian Farrell, Brandon Sheehan, Shane Dowling, Jason Shore, Brian Quirke.
Subs: Damien Egan (Used) David Walsh, Eoin Murphy, Aidan Egan
