CRECORA-MANISTER
Junior Hurling
Following two wins out of two we faced off against Caherline last Thursday evening in a top of the table clash against last year's Semi finalists. Following a lightning fast start by Caherline and some missed chances from Crecora we found ourselves 7 points down after 15 minutes but credit to the lads they dug deep to take control of the game for the remainder of the first half and by the 13th minute of the In the second half we drew level and then took the lead by a point. However those efforts caught up with us and despite the last 15 mins being nip and tuck, Caherline took their scores and ended up 4 point winners on the night. Next up for our lads is Drom Broadford next Friday evening in Sean Finn Park, Rathkeale where we hope to put our season back on track. Thanks to Fedamore for the use of their facilities and best wishes to Caherline for the remainder of the campaign.
Minor Football
Tory Hill Gaels took on Askeaton/Ballysteen/Kilcornan in their Minor B Football Semi-Final Wednesday evening in Kildimo, in what turned out to be an extremely entertaining game. ABK got off to the perfect start with a goal but THG picked off a few points and led by 0-10 to 1-04 at the half-time break. THG pushed on after the break and extended their lead to 7 points, but ABK didn’t give up and raised another green flag with 6 minutes left on the clock. ABK continued to put on the pressure for the remainder of the half but THG stuck together, defended really well and got their hard fought, well-deserved win. Well done to all players and management. Thanks to all who headed to Kildimo to support the lads, details on the County Final to follow.
