U8 & U9 Parish
Football League
We
had a lovely autumn evening for rounds 3 and 4 of our football league on Friday
last 21st October. It was the very first occasion of playing under
the flood lights for all the players and everyone really enjoyed the
experience. The two (2) rounds produced some very competitive football and we
had eight keenly contested games, producing a total of 96 scores over the hour.
We had a visit by two (2) former Academy players, Shane Ahearne & Seamus
Ryan, and all the players appreciated their input. The Fenians maintained their
100% record winning their games against Pearses & Cuchulains. One of the most
keenly contested games was Cuchulains versus Sarsfields, with Cuchulains edging
it by 2 points (4-4 to 4-2). Sarsfields have been improving every game and
could yet cause a major upset. O’Donovan Rossa beat Wolfe Tones in game 1;
however Michael Davitts turned the tables on them in the 2nd game
(5-3 to 5-0). Davitts claimed their 3rd win when they had a 3 point
win over Na Fianna. Wolfe Tones recovered from their loss against O’Donovan
Rossa to claim 2 pts against Na Fianna in round 4, whilst Pearses claimed their
2nd win when they accounted for Sarsfields. Fenians top the table
with 8pts; Wolfe Tones & Davitts are tied at 2nd with 6pts each.
Pearses are in fourth place with 4pts, followed by Na Fianna, O’Donovan Rossa
& Sarsfields. It’s still all to play for, with three rounds being played
off on Friday evening next 28th October. Throw in for Round 5 will
be at 6pm & activity will run on until approx 7:30pm.

Under 13
On
Friday night last we hosted St Marys Clonmel for the annual Rose Lanigan
Perpetual Trophy. On the night a very competitive game ensued with our own lads
coming out on top in the end. We would like to thank St Marys for travelling
down on the night to fulfil the fixture. Also thanks must go to Joe Cleary,
Brid, Aileen and Niamh for all their help on the night and for making sure
everything ran smoothly. We would also like to thank the parents who brought
along biscuits and cakes which all went down a treat on a cold evening in
Abbeyside. Lastly to our players and mentors a big thank you must go as this
brings the curtain down on their playing season. Well done to all.
Under 15
We
were due to play Ring last night Tuesday in the Under 15 Football Championship
but at the time of print the result of this match was not known but will be
included next week. We are also due to play two rounds of this championship
next weekend where we are due to take on Dungarvan and Ring again. Best of luck
to all involved.
Juvenile AGM
The
juvenile club AGM will take place in the clubhouse on Wednesday 16th
November at 7.30 pm. Parents are invited to come along on the night.
