Ladies League Results
Mooncoin Celtic 8
Villa 0
After the heavy defeat away to Dungarvan, the girls were keen to start fast and get back doing the basics. They flew out of the traps with goals from Sarah Walsh with a hat trick, Bethany Carroll, Ella Brennan and Aoibhe Rees putting them 6 up at the break. Second half goals from Bethany Carroll and Aoibhe Rees secured a  resounding win against a young Villa side.

Park Rangers 0
A sunny wednesday evening in Suir Crescent saw the girls dominating a first half but couldn’t get the breakthrough until a speculative effort from Bethany Carroll squeezed past the keeper just before half time. Becky Connaughton buried a free kick on the hour mark before Ella Brennan with a trademark bullet goal secured the three points.
Two wins on the bounce and two clean sheets ahead of the upcoming Munster Junior Shield Final on Sunday 13th. Preparation will now focus on that historic game for the club and we hope to see as many from Mooncoin in the RSC on Sunday 13th at 12 noon.
Final well done to the Waterford League Ladies team on their convincing win recently away to Wexford in the Angela Hearst group game. We had Ella Brennan in the squad for this one.

Tramore 3

The boys continued their good run and will be disappointed not to have taken three points on offer.  Goals from Adam Cunningham and Kieran Fagan had them two up in the first half but Tramore pulled back to level up before half time. Tramore then took the lead early in the second half before DT McGrath continued his good form with an equaliser. Disappointing result after taking control early but an improvement nonetheless. The lads were delighted to hand U15 Goalkeeper Bradley Nolan his debut and Bradley was excellent throughout showing how comfortable and confident he is regardless of his age.

Villa 1

An excellent result on villa’s astro pitch especially after going behind to a soft penalty on half time which Bradley Nolan nearly kept out. Adam Walsh equalised early in the second half and the lads dominated villa and eventually got the winner through Tommy Lennon with the clock running down. Great win and a home quarter final against Park Rangers to come after the mid season break.
