Castlelyons take U12 C Grade East Football League title. 2015-10-27 14:15:00

Congrats to our U12 Footballers who won the Rebel Og East C Grade Football League on Saturday morning last. 

The lads defeated Courcey Rovers on a score 4-3 to 3-4 - well done lads what a great end to the season. 

Both teams had been waiting for this one for a while as the league has been finished since August. Indeed, both teams had only lost once during this league we knew it would be a close affair. Castlelyons made the better start and were leading by 4 points coming up to the break only for Courceys to score a goal just before half time. 

This set up a nervy and tough second half. Our lads really knew we were in a battle when Courseys really upped their game after the break and only for some great defending and huge effort from all the lads we would have been in big trouble. While we did get hit for two goals we got another couple ourselves to win on a scoreline of 4-03 to 3-04.  Well done lads, it was a great win even if we were unlucky a few times this year. 

Panel: -  David Jones, Colm McCarthy, Peter Greaney, Ian Ryan, Ian O'Sullivan, Michael O'Sullivan, Marc Callinan, James Cullinane (Capt), Cees Kouwenberg, Jody Whelan, Michael Griffin, Alex Murphy, Evan Lenehan, Oscar Hallihan, Leon Shanahan and Dara Spillane.

After the victory the team then travelled to our clubs main sponsor Riordan's Supervalu in Fermoy to show off our plaque for the league title. The lads then collected  for the 2nd day, the Kit for Kids gear which Supervalu sponsored and which was kindly presented by Colm Donnellan of Riordan's Supervalu. It was a great day for everyone and especially for this bunch of lads and their coaches.  Thanks so much to Riordan's Supervalu for their kind sponsorship. 

Juvenile GAA AGM 

This is scheduled for Saturday the 14th November and we hope to see a big crowd in attendance.
