U17 Quarter final
Drumcullen/Seir Kieran 2-14 Ballinamere/Durrow 2-10
This was a titanic struggle at the Faithful Fields in cold but perfect conditions on Monday evening. Ballinamere looked the likely winners for most of the game but with outstanding performances from John Coughlan and Tom Dooley in particular DSK hung on and finished strongly. A great goal from Barry Connolly and an inspirational point from Mark Kennedy sealed the win. DSK opened the scoring but were trailing until the 50th minute but once they got their noses in front they fought like tigers to prevent a lively opposition from establishing a foothold. Well done to all concerned and we look forward to a semi-final.
U11’s
Our U11’s had their graduation ceremony from The Liam Lyons Academy on Saturday last. Our special guest on the day was Brian Carroll. Those who graduated were Cian Mannion, John Foley, Cormac Creamer, Ryan Hollywood, Cormac Nugent, Gearoid Dooley, Oisín Darcy, Martín Ryan, & James Hennessy. These lads will join Drumcullen/Seir Kieran next year at U13 level. A big thanks to Brian for taking the time out of his busy weekend to spend time with the lads and for the words of inspiration. Unfortunately things did not go his and Coolderry’s way on Sunday, but they done the county proud with their heroic efforts.
