School Boys/Girls and Junior League Football in South Kilkenny
At our new grounds yesterday, we had a little mix and match of our youngest girls group teaming up with our Senior Ladies group for a short ball work session and plenty fun was had by all involved with our young u10s showing off their skills and impressing our older girls.
These young 8 and 9 year olds girls are the future stars of our female section and will be a driving force in years to come.
Our young academy boys took part in the Ferrybank AFC U9 Clover Tournament today and put in a great effort in both their groups to gain much needed experience in a competitive setting.
With 13 out of the 17 on duty underage again next year, today will be of huge benefit. Special mention must go to 7 year old Billy Fielding who bagged a hat trick in game 2 against Dungarvan and also notched against Tramore.
Big thanks and well done to Ferrybank on a brilliantly run U9 Academy tournament.
We wish the very best of luck to Ethan and the Waterford u12 development squad in the final tomorrow afternoon vs Dublin.

Also in the photo is TJ Curran and James Mackey.
Tomorrow these boys will lead our academy boys in the Ferrybank AFC Clover Tournament for U9 boys. 32 teams are entered with Mooncoin Celtic entering 2 teams in what will be an exciting day for all involved.
Best of luck to all involved.

A beautiful sunny evening in Suir Crescent was the scene for our final academy session of the season.
Ice cream enjoyed by all boys, girls and coaches as well as a little bit of soccer. Hope to see all academy kids back on the 25th June for our Soccer Marathon and returning for academy sessions in September.
Our academy kids took a trip to St Nicholas Park in Ballyduff Friday evening and enjoyed games in glorious sunshine against Ballyduff FC future stars.
Big thanks to Jason King and Ballyduff for hosting us and thank you to all parents for their continued support for the kids.
Our academy kids up to u8 welcomed Piltown to sunny Suir Crescent this evening for a bundle of games and the very large crowd present were treated to 2 hours of fabulous entertainment with goals, tackles, tears and laughter aplenty from both sets of kids.
Big thanks to all coaches from both clubs for giving up their time and nurturing the next generation of stars.
We were delighted to have Sonya of Wild Willow Coffee Trailer on site for the evening too serving lovely treats and refreshments.
There was plenty of football and fun with the Academy girls in Piltown.

Plenty of goals, plenty of tackles and plenty of fun was had. Big thanks to all parents for supporting the boys and also thanks to Richie Connolly and his charges for coming down and we look forward to the return games up in Piltown.
