School Boys/Girls and Junior League Football in South Kilkenny
We had an eye in the sky during the week to showcase some of the work done in the last 12 months at a cost of just under €160,000.
None of this would have been possible without the support of everyone in our 300 club and everyone supporting our 50 50 draw. Thank you for your continued support.
Our young ladies side entertained Villa in sunny conditions and an even first half saw chances for both sides with both goalkeepers equal to anything thrown at them, nil all at half time.
The second half saw an early goal for Villa and a second was added after a scramble from a corner. Try as we might we couldn’t breach the Villa back line.
Villa killed the game off with a breakaway goal and deservedly took the three points. A few new positions tried out for a few of the girls and we’ll take the positives in to next week away to Park Rangers.
The 300 Club draw for JUly was held this week and the winners include:
Well done to all our winners and thank you for the continued support.
The July monthly draw takes place tomorrow (Saturday) at 12 noon in Suir Crescent and will be screened Live on Facebook.
A very disappointing result with the game done after 25 minutes with Tramore 3 up. A little shake up saw an improved work rate and Becky Connaughton put away a free kick on 40 minutes.
Second half saw an improvement but Tramore notched their 4th goal on 50 minutes. A few half chances came our way but no end product. Caoimhe Power and Grace O Toole were the pick of the bunch tonight.
A very talented young group who know they should be getting better results, it will come in time.
Due to unforeseen circumstances (and probably the weather), the Soccer Marathon scheduled for Sunday is CANCELLED and will be rescheduled shortly.
Work commenced this week on spectator fencing around the main pitch with Watmór Construction on site, the break in weather during the week cost us a couple of days and works will not finish until early next week.
We hosted Munster Junior Cup finalists on Wednesday evening and we’re left with a mountain to climb early on when two very obvious offside calls were ignored.
Dungarvan showed their class throughout the first half and scored two very good goals. Second saw our girls playing for pride and they created many chances throughout with the post and crossbar preventing a couple of goals before Becky Connaughton hung up a good free kick.
A couple of late goals were put away by Dungarvan before time was called.
The very best of luck to Dungarvan United in this Sunday’s Munster Junior Cup Final against Wilton United of Cork.
We’d also like to wish Breska Rovers the best of luck in the Munster Shield Final on Sunday, Breska Rovers beat us in a close encounter in the last 16 in a very close game in Suir Crescent.
Next Sunday (July 30th) at the third time of asking, we will hold our Soccer Marathon in Suir Cresent from 2-5.30 followed by the presentation of our end of season awards.
Wild Willow Coffee Trailer will be on site as well as a BBQ overseen by our two club chefs.
We would like to thank all of the people to date who have contributed sponsorship via the link and urge all to share the link with friends and family that might support our club.
Looking forward to seeing you all next Sunday.
A tough evening at the office for this young group who held tight for 30 minutes but succumbed to a number of tidy finishes from Benfica before the break.
Second half saw a bit of an improvement for us but sloppy defending and good finishing saw the game out with a landslide victory for the league leaders.
