U8's/U10's - Our U8's and U10's footballers played Enniskerry on Friday, with two cracking games of football had. There were standout performances from Joshua Temple and Theo McKenna from our U8's, while the U10's saw a few new faces in the team, with Cian Egan, Caitlin Egan and Adam Murray being in good form.
Many thanks to Enniskerry for hosting the match.
U12's - Our U12's hurling team were also in action on Friday evening, taking on Kilmacanogue.
Kilmacanogue were the first team to get on the scoreshert scoring a goal in the opening minutes. It wasn't long before Cian Byrne in midfield levelled the tie with a cracking goal, following a great show of individual skill. Kilmac got their first point of the game to edge themselves ahead with Byrne responding again with a long range point from play to reign in the Kilmac side. Lance Wilde was impressive in midfield, winning his share of puck outs, and scored his first point from midfield to put Fergal Ógs ahead. Both sides were evenly matched, trading score for score with Cian Byrne netting another brace of goals, accumalting a hattrick 20 minutes in. When Kilmac looked for a reply, Jack Allen was on call to make a few vital saves, while Rhyss Wilde, Caitlin Doyle and Shane Buta were in fine form at the back with Buta scrapping for every ball and laying it off for Wilde and Doyle to drive it back up the pitch. Oisin Allen was the third player in the midfield trio, and made some clever runs, while demonstrating an impressive workrate to win the ball back when not in possesion. The teams work rate ensured that Kilmacs 's scoring was kept to a minimum with two converted Cian Byrne frees sending the two teams in at halftime with nothing separating them.
In the 2nd half, Jake Peare was unlucky not to bag a goal in the opening minutes, with Eleanor Gilroy, Ross McAteer and Saoirse O'Hanlon ready to pounce on any ball that came their way in the forward line.
Both teams continued to trade points, with neither being allowed to pull far ahead. Some good defensive pressure from both sides lead to a few wides in the latter stages, with some brilliant blocking and hooking denying scoring opportunities for both teams in the dying minutes.
By the final whistle, there was nothing between the two teams, with the tie ending all even.
Many thanks to Kilmacanogue for hosting the match.
The Fergal Ógs team: Jack Allen, Rhyss Wilde, Shane Buta, Caitlin Doyle, Lance Wilde, Cian Byrne, Jake Peare, Ross McAteer, Sam, Eleanor Gilroy, Saoirse O'Hanlon, Oisin Allen
