Playing against the breeze in the first half we led 2-12 to 1-9 at the break with goals coming from David Sheppard and Shane Dowling.
 A third goal in the second half from David Dempsey sealed what was a very good victory.
Final score Na Piarsaigh 3-24 South Liberties 1-16

Na Piarsaigh v Kildimo Pallaskenry
Venue: Kildimo
Result: Kildimo Pallaskenry 1.22 Na Piarsaigh 2.12

Our players started this match well on the back of retaining their City League crown. Na Piarsaigh were 4 points to the good five minutes before half time with Sean McKeown drilling over two lovely points and Paul McNamera showing his experience and vision in the middle of pitch. A misfortunate injury to Peter Hodnett who was having an outstanding game at centre back just before the interval turned the tide in this game. Peters absence made a huge difference and the teams went in level at half time.  In the second half our players battled gallantly but on the night Kildimo Pallaskenry ran out deserved winners. We had good performances from Mark Considine, Peter Hodnett, Paul McNamera, Sean McKeown and Darragh Kennedy.

Na Piarsaigh v Ballybrown
Venue: Ballybrown
Result: Ballybrown 3.11  Na Piarsaigh 1.10

We entered into this game on the back of losing our minor players due to their preparation for Minor Championship and also having to forfeit home advantage. On the night once more we started the match very brightly with Ciaran Keogh and Darragh Kennedy leading by example. Half way through the first half Na Piarsaigh were well on top of the game and leading by 3 points with Paul McNamera scoring some excellent long range frees. In the second half Ballybrown battled hard to go three points in front only for a Ken Leonard goal to level the affair heading in to the last ten minuts. Ballybrown went on to score two late goals to win the match in the final minutes. Jack Ryan made his long awaited return to the Na Piarsaigh jersey on the night and it was great to see him back. Team 1) Mike Flynn 2) Martin Doyle 3) Darragh Kennedy 4) Kevin McNamera 5) Ciaran Keogh 6) Paul McNamera 7) Ruairidh OConnell 8) Noel Shannon 9) Kevin Hodnett 10) Cian Doherty 11) Jack Murray 12) Eddie ONeill 13) Jamie Wilson 14) Jack Ryan 15) Emmet Beston Sub Ken Leonard

Na Piarsaigh v Claughaun
Venue: Claughaun
Result: Na Piarsaigh 4.13 Claughaun 2.03

On an inclement night in Claughaun our players put in an outstanding performance to run out winners by 19 points. Claughaun struggled to cope with the movement of our forwards with tight marking at the back. Ruairidh O'Connell put in an outstanding performance man marking one of Claughans main scoring threats, with Paul McNamera once more bossing the middle of the field. The victory margin could of been much greater only for 3 great saves been made by the Claughaun goalkeeper. Brian Buckley Darragh Kennedy Sean McKeown and Kevin Hodnett all lead by example on the night.

Monday 8th August 2016
Na Piarsaigh v Mungret
Venue: Pairc Drumguil
Result: Mungret 5.12 Na Piarsaigh 2.16

In our first home championship match of this season our players once more left everything on the pitch. Jack Murray was in flying form in the first half along with Ian Considine and Marcus McMenamy. We were leading by 5 points at the break but failed to come out of the blocks in the second half and conceded some disappointing goals. Our lads know they will have to up their performance significantly for the City Championship semi final v Mungret Saturday the 20th August at 6.45pm in Clarina. Team 1) Mike Flynn 2) Ruairidh O Connell 3) Darragh Kennedy 4) Tom Quinn 5) Peter Hodnett 6) Brian Buckley 7) Eddie O'Neill 8) Paul McNamera 9) Kevin Hodnett 10) Ian Considine 11) Jack Murray 12) Noel Shannon 13) Jack Ryan 14) Gordon Leonard 15) Marcus McMenamy Subs Martin Doyle Jamie Wilson Cian Doherty

Unfortunately the City semi final v Mungret which took place on Saturday didn't go our way and it was the concession of some soft goals which proved crucial in the end.
Final score Mungret 3-10 Na Piarsaigh 1-12
