A disappointing result and end to the season for this talented bunch. There was very little between the two teams this evening in glorious Kilrush Park and the first goal was always going to be key.

We created a few decent chances in the first period but good goalkeeping and a couple of efforts just off target had the boys thinking it was going to be one of those evenings.

Dungarvan scored from a header from a great corner 5 minutes before the break. Second half saw it swing from end to end and both keepers were kept on their toes throughout.

A breakaway goal a few minutes from the end saw Dungarvan deservedly advance. Best of luck to Dungarvan United in the rest of the competition.
A very good season in A league football by this squad and they have a very bright future ahead of them.

The first round of the cup fell on Ted Mcloughlin’s birthday as the boys travelled to Ballyduff in what was sure to be a tight encounter.

We opened the scoring within the first 5 minutes as Patrick O Hanlon got a lovely strike from just outside the box in the bottom corner in off the back post.

We controlled the game in the middle of the park giving Ballyduff no chances until the end of the first half when they rattled the ball off the bar but Tom Fewer was there to get it out of the danger.

The second half was more of the same with our goalkeeper in Oscar O Keefe and back 3 of Luke Henebery, Shay Moore and Tom Fewer continuing there great run of form at the back and getting another clean sheet for the team.

Our midfield 4 of Ted Mcloughlin, Aaron Walsh, Teddy Dunphy and Harry Ahern did a great job in getting stuck in and creating plenty chances and helping out the defence when needed also.

Patrick O Hanlon had another great game getting his 5th goal of the season. Elliot Coughlan and Max Rowe also came on and put in a performance they should be happy with.

We’re sure that the boys will carry this run of form to Kilmacow in the quarter final.

Our u12A team played a hard fought cup derby with Piltown today in the midday heat.

They were desperately unlucky with the first goal conceded after 15 minutes, a clearance which rebounded off the Piltown forward who knew little about it.

Luck was against us again as Jason was hacked down not once but twice while sprinting clear. Chances were few and far between with Billy and later Sean having good strikes on goal saved.

Piltown scored two more goals as the lads pushed for one of their own. A disappointing end to a hard season in which they deserved far more than they got. They will come back next season the stronger for it no doubt.

Best of luck to our 4 girls involved in Gaynor All Ireland Finals tomorrow in Kilkenny with the Waterford Schoolgirls League Development Squads. Emily Blackmore, Ella Brennan and Aoibhe Rees are involved at u16 level and Hannah Dobbyn is involved with the u12 squad.

Everyone in Mooncoin Celtic are rooting for these 4 girls and their teammates tomorrow.

Our u14 white girls, got their cup campaign underway with a win against Piltown blue. Three first half goals sealed the victory, with two late goals from a resilient piltown team.
