Match 1

Tinneteriffe v Roxborogh

Tinneteriffe didn’t let anything past them the whole game, scoring point after point, goal after goal. A Tineteriffe win.

Tinneteriffe Donoughmore

This team did put up a fight against us, even though they lost to Donoughmore in the group stages,they were a good team.They scored a few points and a goal but we still came out on top. That left us with 2 wins out of 2 so we were the top in our group and we had to play Killinure in the semi final. In the other tie there was Donoughmore V Ahane.

Tinneteriffe v Killinure

So our match kicked off with Killinure getting a good few scores and it wasn’t looking good for us. Before half time we had scored 0-2 and Killinure had 1-2. At half time we asked Patsy (the referee) ‘Whats the score?’, and he said 1-2 to 0-1. We asked why, but the score stayed the same.

So we were 1 goal and 1 point down. You would think we lost all hope, but a free that went in...GOAL to us!

Patsy gave a free to Killinure but out of nowhere a Killinure player pulled on Donnacha Hogan’s knee. After the free was given, it changed to a throw in which Tinneteriffe won! We tried for a point it dropped short for a Goal!.Tinneteriffe were back in it. Last puck of the game Colum Hanley received the ball from a puck out from Cathal Mulcahy. Colum Hanley sprinted with the ball down the wing, played a beautiful ball in front of Donnacha Hogan, a lovely flick up into his hand...Goal! That’s when we knew Tineteriffe 4 th 5 th and 6 th were into the 11 a side final against Ahane.
