Academy News

Another busy Saturday for the Academy saw the younger lads head off to Killarney Celtic to enjoy a series of challenge matches, while the older lads trained as normal with more games in the not too distant future. The 6’s 7’s & 8’s played the Celtic boys with Andrew Kerins among the goal scorers, while Jack Slattery & Tiernan O Sullivan scored one each in a 2nd half comeback for the under 7’s. The 8’s also played fantastic with Mike Tansley excelling in goals in the second half of the U8’s & Alex McGrath, Sean Moynihan (a chip off the ol block), Odhran Ferris & Jamie Williams all finding the onion bag. Sean Tuomy & Rory Locke/Clifford tormented the Celtic backs while Venius Jahiri & Ewan o Sullivan were rocks in defence. Well done to all the boys that played their hearts out & to all the Moms & Dads for the drives & support. See the website for photos & match reports. Thanks also to Mary & all in Celtic for their hospitality once again, it’s a pleasure to go there. We will be marching on Paddys Day a text will go out during the week with our number for the parade, see you there !
