All Ireland Champions

Pride of place this week has to go to our Rounders team who won the All Ireland Junior Mixed Championship on Sunday afternoon in Dublin. At time of writing, we don't have a report on the event so we will look forward to bringing you all the details next week. Ballinagore Abú!

 

Intermediate Football Championship

We play Milltownpass on Friday evening in the 3rd round of the championship. The game is in Rochfortbridge and throw in is at 19:15. We had a great turnout of support for our last game in Rosemount and it is a big help to the lads as they go in search of their first win after the disappointment in their last game against Tubberclair.

 

Minor Football Championship

Lilliput Gaels 4-12 Milltownpass 3-19

Our minor team came up against a strong Milltownpass side on Thursday evening in Ballinagore and suffered a four point defeat after an entertaining and close encounter. With just one point separating the sides at half time, 2-07 to 1-11, the scene was set for a hard fought second half battle. Milltownpass took control for the opening fifteen minutes and in a purple patch that yielded 2-04 in less than ten minutes, we looked dead and buried. However, our lads rose to the occasion and dominated from there until the end and with Morgan Gavigan in fine scoring form, we stormed back into the game and indeed could have been a lot closer as we missed a penalty and kicked some bad wides. However a well balanced Milltownpass side were full value for their win and we now turn our attention to our next game where a win will have us right back in the chase for a semi-final spot. Team: Jamie Fallon, Conal Fagan, Paddy Doran, Fergal O'Brien, Darragh Seery, Dylan Clarke, Finian Heeney, Eoin Kiernan, Conor Murphy, Aaron Glennon, Jack Gallagher, Morgan Gavigan, Barry Bolger. Subs used: Peter Reynolds, Cian Gavigan.
