27 August 2010 No luck for our Junior D team Our fourth and final team also travelled to Skryne to be part of a double header with Ballinlough providing the opposition in the Junior D quarter final. Unfortunately our lads, despite trying to playing football were guilty of a number of mistakes at critical times and the experienced Ballinlough punished us. We lost out on a final score line of 2-10 to 1-07 but managed to stay in the game up to the final minutes when there was only 3 point between the teams. Considering that this was our first year in the competition some lads will have gained a huge amount of experience that will help us next year. Click here for Match Report. Junior A team lose out by a single point Our junior A lost out in thier quarter final game is disappointing fashion in Skryne on Sunday evening. Playing against a first team (Dunsany) our lads played very well in the opening half to lead by 0-08 to 0-02. By the end of the third quarter we were still in control as we led by 1-10 to 0-04. However in the final quarter we hit five wides while Dunsany scored 1-07 without reply, the winner coming in injury time to book a place in the semi fianl on a score line of 1-10 to 1-11.

We got off to the worst possible start by conceding a goal in the first minute and a further two points in the 3rd and 4th minutes. From this point on we were chasing the game. We trailed at the break by 1-02 to 1-07 with our goal coming from David Morgan on 11 minutes.
