The U-11s had two good wins over Ballisadare and Drumcliffe Ros/Pt. last week, with outstanding performances from Shane O'Hehir and Tony O'Kelly Lynch. The U-9s also had a good win over Drumcliffe Ros/Pt. with excellent performances by Cian Muldowney and Shane Monaghan. Both teams played St. John's U-9/U-11 on Monday 29th, results to follow next week. Semi-finals and Finals take place 11th October and 18th October. U-18 - Our minors must do battle again with Bunninadden after a pulsating game which ended honours even (St. Mary's 2-13 Bunninadden 4-7) in Markievicz Park on Sunday last. Despite going behind by 4 points on three occasions our young team showed superb spirit, determination and commitment to battle back and take the lead with only minutes left to play leaving Bunninadden to equalize from a free from the last kick of the game. Great credit is due to the management team of Paul Newton, Kevin Molloy and Declan McGoldrick for all the work put into this group over the past number of months, they have come in leaps and bounds and with 11 of the starting line up underage next year the future is looking very bright for our minor team. Finally a big thank you to all our supporters for coming out in such big numbers and really getting behind our lads when the game was in the balance. At the time of going to press we are not sure of the arrangements for the replay but we would ask all club supporters to get out and support our lads in the replay in their efforts to win a long overdue minor title. The last time we won a minor title was 1997 with a team that featured Mark Breheny, Jonathon Martyn and Jonathon Davey all of whom went on to win U-21 and senior titles with the club as well as winning a Connacht title with Sligo last year. All players are requested to attend all training sessions on Monday and Friday. New Club Signs Well done to Peter Farrell for all his work on organizing the new signs around the club as gaeilge. The new sign at the front of the clubhouse and the new sign at the roadside are very impressive and the feedback from visitors has been really positive.
