Our U14B’s travelled to Bohs this afternoon and after a slow start Mooncoin soon found their stride. Both teams played a brilliant attacking game, with Mooncoin having plenty of opportunities.

Bradley Nolan was unlucky to concede a goal just before half time. After making a few positional changes at half time, Mooncoin came back at them in the second half.

Finn Foskin opened Mooncoin’s scoring when he converted a penalty. Minutes later Finn made it 2-1 to Mooncoin with his second goal and Cathal Morahan made it 3-1 with another great goal. We had two goal line clearances from Bradley Nolan and Larry O’Brien when we took our eye off the ball just before the final whistle!!

Everyone played great and the players that really stood out today were Conor Phelan and Larry O’Brien.

The best performance of the season to date as the boys took the game to Villa on their magnificent astro turf pitch. An early lead through Jason Grace was well deserved and it was a long ball over the top caught the lads out for Villa’s equaliser. Much improved all round.

We hosted Villa and Waterford Crystal on Sunday morning in Suir Crescent with our older girls taking on villa while our younger group played Crystal.

Plenty of goals, saves, tackles and most importantly fun had. Keep up the good work coaches and kids.

A game of missed chances for our u14 white team. A first half where we completely dominated, but with no goals to show for it at half time. An early goal in the second half for Tramore, albeit against the run of play gave them confidence.

But the girls composed themselves and equalised with a great passing move finished off by Anna Reddy. We had to settle for the one point on this occasion.

Today we welcomed Tramore to Suir Crescent, with the league format becoming clearer we knew this game would be a right battle.

It took us about 10 minutes to settle and try get the passing game going with Sam Hartwell giving us the lead, then within a few minutes adding his second after being put through by a beautiful flick by Alex Bailey and finishing to the bottom corner superbly.

We now found ourselves in the always dangerous position of two up early in the game, we had the chances to kill the game. Tramore got their goal before half time from a corner that we should have dealt with, which brought them right back into the game. In the second half we started well causing problems on both wings, but to their credit Tramore really went for the game hitting the crossbar.

Our lads showed great resilience and held out for a well earned win. Man of the Match in this one for his workrate and some superb crosses was Stephen Brennan, both wingers today caused lots of problems and bar the soft goal the defence were very solid.

The lads were away to villa today putting in a great performance against a well organised side.

Shay Moore opened the scoring with a great strike early on to put us 1-0 up. Villa scored 2 quick goals shortly after leaving us down 2-1. Oscar o keefe made a crucial save on to the bar shortly after that was thought to be a certain goal for Villa.

Teddy Dunphy got it back to 2-2 before the break. In the second half it was very evenly contested with nothing between the sides. Final score 2-2.

Cody was captain for the day as Park Rangers arrived at Suir Crescent to avenge a 4-2 defeat at their own ground in September.

They started strongly and scored 3 goals quick succession in the first 15 minutes throwing lots of players forward. The game settled after 20 minutes with Mooncoin the better team for the remainder of the match. Numerous chances and corners were to no avail however until Eoin scored late on.

It was too little to late unfortunately and the game finished 3-1. The lads will be hoping to bounce back from their first defeat when they play St. Joseph’s away on Bank Holiday Monday.
