Our u17 squad played last Friday the 1st February in an exciting encounter against Maynooth C.C. With a supporters bus loaded up to come and cheer on the team for the division 2 final we were unlucky to go a goal down with the score line 1-0 down at the break. Sam and Mazin played well in the no 10 and winger roles and worked hard defensively as they pushed for an attack. Our defensive back three(Daire, Adam and Scott) were strong as a unit competing against an ROI u16 international player. As we pushed forward in the second half we conceded two quick goals and then the game came ran away from us in a 5-0 final score line. This didn’t reflect the performance of our team as they competed for large periods during the game against a physically strong squad from Maynooth. Looking forward to this young u17 team to compete next year with 9 of the starting 11 in third year. Playing a year below their age group will give them some valuable experience in their TY cup and u17 league campaign in 2019/2020 season. Congratulations to Maynooth C.C. who received the Chris O’Grady cup in memory of the Kildare referee who passed away last year. Proud of this group as always and they left everything they could on the pitch for themselves, each other and for their school. Ms Piare
