Colmcille GFC notes

October 28, 2014

Congratulations to our Juvenile team who won the Championship Shield on Saturday last defeating Granard/Ballymore after extra time in what was a highly entertaining game. Colmcille led at half time but Granard/Ballymore fought back in the second half aided by the breeze and they led going into injury time. Colmcille worked a fine score to equalise and send the game to extra time. Our lads showed great fitness and resolve to push on in extra time, scoring a crucial goal and winning out on a final score of 1-15 to 1-10. Well done to both teams. It was a great week for this group with many of them also involved in last weeks Minor B Championship victory.
