Rosemount GAA notes

June 18, 2018

Gaa: As we head towards the end of our ACFL Div 1 campaign , we travelled to Kinnegad to play Milltownpass last Monday. Due to players on holidays, injuries, county commitments, a fairly depleted side took the field and came against a well drilled Milltownpass side who were fighting for survival in the league. It was Milltownpass who had the better of the early exchanges. With county panelist Finbar Coyne in there ranks , he proved to be a handful and lead the charge from the front . Having missed a couple of early chances we began to settle with the lively Lorcan Daly leading the charge. We kicked a couple of points which was followed by a well taken goal by Theo Watts. Milltownpass then kicked back into gear , and were taking most chances that came there way in front of goal. We went in at half time seven points down , and with a lot of work to do in the second half , we saw a very positive response from the lads. Boidu  Sayeh kicked a king range free, Lorcan Daly kicked a fantastic long range point to keep up in the game . Having got a couple of scores to get us back in the game , Milltownpass then struck two goals in quick succession heading into the last few minutes. The lads tried there hardest , but in the end we just came up short by two points. 
We now play Coralstown Kinnegad in our last game which is at home. 

Walking track lights in the park are now off for the summer months. Only those with membership paid are permitted and insured to use the walking track.
