Spa welcomed Beaufort on Monday evening in round 4 of the East Kerry Minor League. The evening began with a minute silence for Beaufort player Thomas Healy RIP.

It was a game of goals and goal chances right from the start. Beaufort were first to find the net at the very start of the game before Spa finished 3 shots to the back of the goal at the other end. By the first half water break Spa were leading 3-3 to 1-1.

More goals followed for both sides shortly after the game resumed, and by half time Spa were leading by double scores at 4-4 to 2-2.

Beaufort were consistently on the attack in the third quarter and kept the Spa defence under pressure the whole time, and by the second half water break the gap was reduced to just three points, Spa still ahead at 4-7 to 4-4.

Spa finished the game well and held on for the win after adding 1-3 in the final few minutes.

Final score Spa 5-10 Beaufort 4-5.

Spa minors are away to Currow at 7.30pm next Monday night July 26th in the final round.
