U15 CO LEAGUE SPA V AN GHAELTACHT
Our U15’s made the long trip to An Gaeltacht Wednesday evening and on a cold, wet, windy evening the result went the way of the hosts. Our boys played with a strong breeze in the first half but were slow to get going and went in at half time trailing 0-6 to 2-3. Playing against a strong breeze in the second half, our hosts kicked some good long range points but our boys showed some good fighting spirit and kicked some good scores of their own. A number of missed chances in the second half could have bought the game closer for spa however our hosts ran out deserved winners on a score line of 2-11 to 0-08. Thanks to An Gaeltacht for a very sporting game and to all the parents who made the trip.
