The Under 12 Cup Final has been postponed to Saturday 08th June at 14:30 in Graun Park in Tramore. Support for the kids greatly appreciated.

A determined coaching duo of Kevin Kennedy and Pat Walsh had a well drilled squad travelling to the seaside town of Stradbally for an early kick off and they had one thing on their mind and that was a cup final. Not the prettiest of games but at the end of the day, who cares? A Ben Brennan goal in the first half was the difference between the two sides and a hard slog of a season brings the reward of a cup final next Thursday in Tramore at 7pm against near neighbours Kilmacow. A fantastic achievement for both coaching and playing squad. A big squad with an even bigger spirit deserve a big reward for their hard graft in the muck of Ashgrove all season long.
If at all possible, please please please, get out to Tramore next Thursday evening for what will be the clubs second u12 cup final in a row against Kilmacow. Kick off is 7pm.

The curtain came down on what can only be described as a very good season. An end to end clash in Ashgrove this afternoon. We started off slow today but got into our stride as the game went on. We were unlucky not to score on three occasions but a resilient Ballinroad goalkeeper played the game of his life to keep a clean sheet and pulled off brilliant saves. We knocked on the door time and time again but we couldn’t break the deadlock. A scrappy enough goal was the difference between the two teams today. Great advertising for underage football. We now have a few weeks to regroup and add to the squad and next season will be an exciting one for this bunch. The squad today as follows: Adam Conway, Ciara O’Keeffe, Tom Conway, Mikey Cronin, Liam Hogan, Denis Kinsella, Alex Bailey, Lee Freyne, Sean Lennon, Conor Dermody, Sam Hartwell, Matthew Morahan, Daniel Roberts, Eoin O’Callaghan. The management team would like to thank everyone for their hard work and it’s been fantastic watching the development of this squad. And we are looking forward to next season already! Big thanks to Ballinroad today for a great game and Noel Lavery who took charge of the game.

The academy session planned for this evening is cancelled due to the weather, it will be rescheduled for next weekend.

Our u12s have beaten Stradbally 1-0 and advance to the Cup final next Thursday. Match report to follow.

Young Emily Blackmore soaked to the skin but happy after notching her first Gaynor Cup goal up in UL. Go on Emily.
