U-16

Glenfarne/Kiltyclogher 4-12 Gortlettragh 0-1

A great all round team performance saw Glenfarne/Kiltyclogher easily over come Gortlettragh in Glenfarne on Sunday morning last. Despite getting off to a slow start the Glenfarne/Kilty eventually found their rythm and led by 2-6 to 0-2 with the goals coming from Shane McLoughlin and Jonathon Keaney. The second half was more of the same with Glenfarne/Kilty dominating the exchanges and further goals from Fergal Clancy and Shane McLoughlin. This combined with some fine point scoring and good football ensured Glenfarne/Kilty ran out comfortable winners.

In goals for Glenfarne/Kilty, Adrian McSharry was his usual assured self, the full back line was superbly marshelled by Liam Harkin and Aidan Leonard. The half back line of Francis Keaney , Cathal McMorrow and John Sherrin never gane the Gortlettragh forwards time or space to pose any threat. At Midfield Ciaran Clancy and Jonathon Keaney dominated and were the launching pad for many of Glenfarne/Kilty's attacks. The half forward line of Shane McLoughlin, Fergal Clancy and Padraig Sweeney gave the Gortlettragh defence a torrid time with their constant movement and running while inside them Diarmuid Clancy and Noel McLoughlin in the full forward line constantly threaten the Gortlettragh goal.

Well done lads keep up the good work.

Glenfarne/Kilty: Adrian McSharry, Liam Harkin, Aidan Leonard, Francis Keaney, Cathal McMorrow, John Sherrin, Ciaran Clancy, Jonathon Keaney, Shane McLoughlin, Fergal Clancy, Padraig Sweeney, Diarmuid Clancy, Noel McLoughlin.

U-16 Game
Our U-16's were beaten by Allen Gaels on Friday evening by 4 pts in Ballinagleara in what was a brilliant game of football. Get well wishes are extended to Sean McManus who broke his wrist during the game. We all hope to see you back wearing the black and white in the not too distant future.

Minor Final
Our Minor team were beaten by Aughnasheelin on a scoreline 3-7 to 2-8 in the final of the 9-aside league on last Thursday night. In a game that could have gone either way Glenfarne/Kilty gave a brilliant performance against a team containing 2 members of the current county minor panel. Glenfarne/Kilty's young stars proved once again that they are a match for best footballers in the county and were unluck not to add to the list of underage honours acquired in the last number of years. Keep up the training and hard work lads and you day will definitely come.
