Our first league match this season for our u14 lads against Piltown was also our first ever match under floodlights. The game was a tight affair with both sets of players keen to win this local derby. Piltown shaded the first half and went in one nil after a quick throw in caught our lads out of position. Mooncoin came out stronger in the second half and Robbie got on the end of a pass from James to slot the ball past the keeper. Both keepers pulled off top class saves throughout the match to keep the final score to 1-1. Both teams could have won it but a draw was a fair result in the end.

Premier outfit Waterford Crystal were our opponents this morning and we set out to frustrate them from the start and it was working a treat for 20 minutes with long range efforts Crystal’s only outlet. A lapse in concentration saw Crystal score from a quick corner to get ahead and a penalty just before half time saw us go in 2 down. Two quick fire goals from two quick fire mistakes on 46 minutes saw the game over as a contest. Crystal notched another two to see out a comfortable win.

Our u11s played a strong Dungarvan team today with birthday boy cormac captain for the game. The match started frantically with both sides having chances but Dungarvan took theirs and were soon 2 nill up after 10 mins. We made a few changes and steadied the match but conceded just before half time.
We came out fighting in second half and Edmund went on a mazy run beating a couple players before floating the ball in top corner from a distance, we kept pushing forward and had a few chances but were caught on the counter attack and conceded a 4th.
Dungarvan had us on back foot for the last 10 minutes with thomas making some excellent saves but Dungarvan got their 5th.
A first defeat of the season against a more experienced side but an excellent effort by all the team.
Man of the match Edmond

It was an early Saturday morning road trip for the girls with the 11am kick off away to last years league and Cup Winners in Carlow Vale Wanderers. Following on from our first league match a defeat, We as a group had put in immense amount of work and effort on the training pitch. And it showed. We took the lead through Aoibhe Rees early in the game, and our lead was doubled by Áine Connery. The first half was controlled perfectly by the girls, and we were unlucky not to have a bigger lead at the halfway stage. The second half started with the girls pushing for a third goal to kill the game off. The goal did come from Áine who had a super game. Wanderers rallied and pulled a sloppy goal back, and with their tails up, they managed to get a second one that Sadhbh in goal, had no chance. We endured a tense few minutes, and We were very grateful to (safe hands)Sadhbh when she pulled out a couple of great saves to keep our slender lead. The girls regrouped and took control of the game when Saoirse Corcoran played in midfield for the first time, got into the opposing box to clinch a late fourth goal to put in result to bed.(and win a €5 from JP)
It was a performance that the girls can be very proud of. From the goalie to the defence to the midfield to the strikers to the subs, this was a super performance that earns us a home tie against Stoneyford FC in the next round. Well done to all involved.

A right game was played out in near perfect conditions against a physically stronger Ballyduff side. We created lots of chances in each half and could well have got a draw. Goals from Kieran M with 2 and Harry P. Great progress by these young lads.

Despite the result it was a very positive performance for our young side. In the first half we went 1-0 down from a Southend rebound off the crossbar where we didn’t win the 2nd ball. The boys kept battling hard and got a couple chances but it wasn’t to be. Southend got goals 2 and 3 early in the 2nd half both from corners that should’ve been cleared. They also followed up with a 4th not long after. Despite everything the boys kept pushing until they finally got a goal with TJ kicking the ball from his hand out to Tadhg M on the right wing who crossed the ball for Donncha M to slot into the bottom left corner. TJ made plenty saves throughout the game that should’ve been certain goals. Special mention goes to Tom D who threw his body in the way to block some certain goals and standing solid in his first game in centre back.
