New dugouts in place

At last we have had a dry spell of weather to get our dugouts dropped in place. Massive thank you to Peter Brennan of Ashgrove Transport for moving the dugouts today👏, thanks to Watmór for providing the base layer for housing the dugouts, thanks to Eric Walsh for holding the spirit level too and finally a massive thank you to the company who sponsored these dugouts, again……An incredible gesture 👏.

Former player signs for Waterford FC

The very best of luck to one of our former players, Ethan Owens, who has signed with Waterford FC and is sure to have a big future in the game. From a young age in the academy, Ethan was destined for big things due to his hard work on the training ground and working hard out in his back garden in all kinds of weather since a young age. Ethan follows in the footsteps of Daniel Ponce de Leon, who is having a really good debut season for the young Blues ⚽⚽⚽⚽

1B League Result Mooncoin Celtic 1 Villa 5

Very disappointing display from the lads this morning with Villa deservedly taking the three points. Some very poor mistakes were to prove costly with Villa 4 up at the break. They knocked in number 5 just after half time with another defensive error proving costly. We pulled a goal back through Kieran Fagan but a bad day all round.

The curtain came down on the season at the RSC back pitches this evening and Benfica showed why they are in contention for a possible double with a ruthless performance against our young side.

Big thank you as always to supporters for cheering on the girls.

Ladies Cup Semi final Result : Mooncoin Celtic 0 Benfica 3


From the off our young ladies side set their stall out to frustrate Benfica for as long as possible and try catch them on the break. Our young back 4 were superb throughout the first half and really limited Benfica to long range shots. A lapse on 15 minutes was the only downside when a run from deep by the Benfica winger resulted in the opener. The whole midfield and Caoimhe Power up top done huge work throughout the first half and deserved more for their efforts. 1 nil at half time. A similar plan for the second half was set out but an early goal from a corner put a bit of daylight between the teams. A late third goal by Benfica saw them progress but a huge sense of pride in the disciplined performance by our young starting side with an average age of just 19. Best of luck to Benfica in the Cup final. Big thank you to all the supporters today throughout the game.
