Mini 7s Football in Caherelly.

13th Mar 2018

Mini 7s Football Competition, March 2018.

The boys and girsl travelled to Ballybricken GAA field to participate in the mini 7's football competition. This competition had initially been postponed by Storm Ophelia and had Storm Emma to contend with this time round. It was a bright blustery day in Caherelly.

Fot the boys this was their first outing in the East Championship. They were up aginst tough opposition in Roxborogh and Crecora. In the first match, Crecora led but the boys redoubled their efforts and with some super goal taking, came out victors. next came Roxborogh. Their team were very strong and led by three goals at half time. Again the boys never droped their heads and in the second half and drew the match! This meant there was a play off to see who would meet Lisnagry in the east semi-final. Unfortunately for the boys they were beaten by a point. They performed really well, good sportsmen on the field.

The girls had reached the east final. This was their second outing in the mini 7s competition. They played Caherelly, Roxborough and Lisnagry. Again very tough opposition for the girls.
