U15 Feile Iomaint B

 

On Last Friday Week last our U15 Hurlers took part in the Mr Binman Feile which was held in Croagh.

 

Our first match was against Killeedy/ Tournafulla in which a slow start left too much of a mountain to climb with the half time score 2-10 to no score. However, showing great heart and determination the Dromcollogher/ Broadford players came out in the 2nd half and showed what they are capable of. But there was just much of a gap to bridge, and the final score was 2-11 to 1-2.

 

The second game had the lads pitted against a strong Croagh/ Kilfinny/ Rathkeale side but having learned the lesson from the first game the Dromcollogher/Broadford players, from the throw in, showed more grit and willingness to do the hard work needed. With a half time score of 1-2 to 0-2 to Dromcollogher/ Broadford it was all to play for in the final 15 minutes. With the rain now starting to come down heavy, conditions were hard for flowing hurling with the match ending a draw with 1-3 apiece with few chances for either side.

 

With a draw now under their belt heading into the final match against Templeglantine, the players wanted to finish the day on a high note and from the off were the much sharper team. At half time with a lead of 05 to 01 it was looking good. The weather had the final say and the rain came back with a vengeance to make conditions underfoot slick and the ball hard to handle. Putting all thoughts of giving up aside Dromcollogher/Broadford ran out winners by a point with a final score of 07 to 1-3.

 

While a disappointing result to the days games the players showed what they can do when they applied themselves. The slow start to the first half in the first game unfortunately meant the players were trying to play catch-up the rest of the day. A big thanks to the management team for all their work during the year and especially for motivating the team to pick themselves up when things were not going their way. U15 Feile Peil B

 

Dromcollogher/ Broadford put in a super performance over the weekend at the Football Feile getting all the way to the semi-final only to be beating by a very strong Bruff team.


On Friday evening we played our first game against Monagea and won that game by the tightest of margins 1-06 to 1-05. Our next game was against Askeaton where they beat us on a score line of 6-03 to 3-03.


Our last game was on Saturday morning and we were up against Newcastle West, we needed to win by 10 points to go through and our boys played out of their skin to win 6-04 to 3-01 , a 12 point victory and enough to go through to the Quarter finals.


We played St. Kieran’s in the Quarter final and it was a very tight game but our boys came out on top by a single point victory 2-02 to 1-04.


On to the semi-final where Bruff were the opposition and we played brilliant Football but unfortunately Bruff came out on top 7-05 to 3-05.  A super weekend of Football and our boys done the club and their parents very proud.  A big thank you to all the Management, players and parents and after watching the games over the weekend The future is very bright for Dromcollogher/ Broadford going forward. The panel of players: who lined our were Naoise O Connor, Adam White, Ben Croake, Shane Browne, Diarmuid Reidy, Robbie Lynch, Conor O Brien (Captain), Ollie Brudair, Shane Geary, Adam O Kelly, Ger O Callaghan, Ryan Sheehan, Gavin Farrell, Ronan O Sullivan, Aaron Leahy, John Leinhan, Adam Sheils, Robert Jefferys, Conor Mackessey.
