Kill club notes
June 22, 2015Club lotto:- The draw this week took place in Kirwans Bar, last Mon night 15th June, and it produced no winner of the jackpot worth 10K. We had one match 3 and Padraig Dunphy (publican) nets £50 for himself. He will host the next draw where the 10k is still up for grabs.
Deise Draw:- The June draw takes place this Friday evening, 28th and is hosted by the Nire/Fourmilewater club. Lets hope for a change in fortune this time around. As always Hannah awaits for your 'dues ' so all promoters please be prompt with your returns.
Tony Kirwan Plant Hire Eastern Football League:- We traveled to Dunhill last Sat evening, 20th June, to take on Tramore in the fourth and final round of the league. On a beautiful sunny summers evening, Kill matched the weather with their best performance of the year to date. Despite having played no football in 8 weeks we showed no signs of rustiness early on as we raced into a 1-5 to 0-1 lead with Tadgh Cambell netting from a rebound. Our full back line were well on top at this stage with Niall Hennessy and Luke Midleton outstanding, however in the last 5 mins of the half Tramore got a run on us which culminated in them getting a fortunate goal on the stroke of half time to leave us 2 points up. With the breeze at our backs we kicked on again on the resumption. A second green flag from Tadgh saw us open up a 7 point lead and when Ray Hennessy goaled from the penalty spot the 2 points were in the bag. For the closing 10 mins our forwards kicked sum great scores, with captain Anthony Kielys the pick of them. Final score Kill 3-16 Tramore 1-9. The team was:- Brian O Sullivan, Luke Midleton, Niall Hennessy, Fergie Whelan, Corey Kennedy, Eric Londergan, Paidi Raher, Anthony Kiely, Jim Halley, Tadgh Cambell, Sean Cheasty, Oisin Queally, Ben Gallagher, Ciaran Kirwan, Ray Hennessy. Subs used:- Richie Cullinane, Peter Torpey, David Casey, Colm Casey, Ollie STt John.
Upcoming Fixtures:- One fixture that definetly goes ahead this coming weekend is the junior football game against Dela Salle. It is fixed for Gracedieu this Friday evening 26th June with a 7.30 pm throw in. A win for the juniors would seal a place in the knockout stages with still 2 rounds to go.
Meanwhile, our intermediates finished 3rd in their group and are due to play the 4th place team in the other group in round 1 of the championship proper. As the other group has not been completed as of writing these notes we are not 100% sure of who, where, and when we will be playing. More than likely it will be Kilmac and this game could be this weekend or next week. Keep in touch with club officer for more.
