May 08, 20137 MAY 2013
Played at Parc Na Gael, Maguiresbridge
Lisbellaw Patrick's; Knock's Grattan's;
Lisbellaw under fourteen's rather easily booked themselves into yet another All-Ireland Feile, this time at the Shannonside in Limerick.
Though their Knock's opponents rather easily succumbed to an St Patrick's suammi of successful scoring attack's in the opening quarter hour, with goals from the unstoppable "Wee "Tom Keen, Adam McShea (son of Ollie), and they on the matches' resumption and with advantages of tolerable wind the Grattan's forwards fired in a quick succession of goals and points to lift the Knock's morale. However this was insufficient for a powerful, skilful and very strong Lisbellaw team who were well served by Luca McCusker (son of John), Dylan Bannon and Connor in defence.
At mid-field Ciaran Duffy (Son of Sean) at centre half forward and Barri McPhillip's (son of Aide) both supplied the slither and helped themselves to a basketful of scores. However they Lisbellaw forward lines of Nathan Timmoney, Caolan Duffy & Adam McShea were much too strong for the tortured Knock's lads.
Teams, Lisbellaw Patrick's, Connor McG overn, Luca McCusker, Dylan Bannon, Connor McGurn, Aiden Flanagan, Ciaran Rafferty, Peter Rafferty, Barrie Phillip's (Capt.), Ciaran Duffy, Tom Keenan, Darragh McGurn, Caolan Duffy, Aaron Duffy, Nathan Timmoney & Adam McShea.
