The girls section of the club finished up this evening in glorious sunshine with our u14s having a fun filled training session and our u10s playing Carrick in a friendly.
Before we kicked off we presented the awards for the season and also a special recognition award for U15 Gaynor Cup representative Ciara O’Keeffe.
A big thanks to all the coaches for their time and also to the parents for their continued support for the girls.
Hope to see ye all back in September.

A change to this month’s monthly draw for our 300 Club. The draw will take place in Ashgrove on Saturday evening at 8 p.m. right after the club’s soccer marathon fundraiser. The draw will be followed by the player of the year awards. Please share and spread the word!

Great reading in this week’s News and Star newspaper. Long time coming 2 cup wins and hopefully only the start of more trophies, well done to all.

Norris’s 6 The Mansion House 2
Damien Kelly’s prediction of Norris’s going all the way this year could be a sure thing after this goal feast this evening.

Comerfords B 0 The Sweep 3
A polished performance from Owen Kielys charges saw the Sweep advance with ease to face Malzards.

No games until Thursday night when The Reg face Doyle’s at 6.45 and the big Carrick derby between The Auld Rogue and Connors Live at 8pm.

Apologies to all residents in Suir Crescent for the disruption with the moving of the street light at the new entrance to the new ground. Due to a technical fault, there has been a delay with the new light being activated. The street light will be back working tonight. Again, apologies to all for any inconvenience caused.

Doyles 4 Royal Oak 0
A classy Doyle’s outfit steamrolled the Royal outfit and advanced to face The Reg in the quarter final. It could have been more but for Daragh Murphy’s heroics on goal for the Royal Oak as he stopped Martin ‘Spud’ Murphy time after time after time.

Malzards 4 Comerfords A 2
Comerfords put up a decent show against Malzards from Stoneyford who will be among the favourites to win this year’s competition. Soft goals given away did not help their cause after some great finishes by Ian O’Keeffe and Jamie Carroll had them right in the mix.

Monday night will see the first quarter final with Norris’s v Mansion House at 6.45 followed by the last 1st round game between Comerfords B v The Sweep.

A dominant display from the lads clinched a second cup for the cup this week.
From the off, they went at Ferrybank and with Kieran Fagan and Aaron Mcloughlin looking dangerous every time they attacked. A slick finish by Kieran Fagan after 15 minutes settled the nerves and the lads relaxed and 5 minutes before half time a speculative shot from Rudi caused a fumble by the keeper and Aaron Mcloughlin buried the second to put Ferrybank under serious pressure for the second half.
Again in the second half a dominant display was put on with each and every one of the boys playing their part. Adrian Daly nodded in a great corner from Lee Freyne to seal the game and cup midway through the second half.
From there they ran down the clock and lifted the cup to loud cheers from the Mooncoin crowd.
Big well done to players and coaches for their efforts throughout the season and thanks to all parents for their support for the boys all season.
Go on Mooncoin Celtic!

U15 Cup Final
Venue: Tramore, kick off 12.30
Mooncoin Celtic v Ferrybank
All roads lead to Tramore tomorrow for our second cup final of the week. Richard Long and Victor Bailey will be hoping their talented squad can follow up their impressive win against league winners St Paul’s in Wednesday’s semi final with another big performance against a decent Ferrybank side who are a very capable outfit.
Our boys have been hard at it since last August and will hoping to bring home the silverware from the seaside venue.
Your support tomorrow will be vital so please get out to Tramore for 12.30.
Best of luck to players and coaches.

The mullinavat boys will be kicking themselves over this one with a late goal sending the Carrick boys through. Under the experienced eye of Michael Duggan, they threw away this one and exit at the first hurdle.

Whistler’s Inn 0 The Reg 4
The Reg were made to work hard in a tight 1st half and could have been 2 or 3 down before scoring right on half time. They moved through the gears in the second half and won easy in the end.
