Well done to our excellent Junior team last week who beat Taras 3 – 12 to 1 – 12 in the Mullarkey Cup SF.  This is marvellous news for this team in their first season together.  They will play Dulwich Harps in the Final which is sure to be a keenly contested game.   Football this Sunday sees the Senior team in a League game, so we wish them all the best.

The youth section ventured outside London last Saturday, the U11’s accepted an invitation from Sean McDermotts in Birmingham to participate in the Coley Folan Memorial event for teams far and wide.  They had the opportunity to play 4 competitive matches against Erin go Braith, Sean McDermotts and teams from Ballinteer and Clondalkin in Dublin which was great for their development.  A brilliant day of football and more importantly, fun.  The club would like to thank their hosts and all the adults who travelled with them and Tim Slattery-manager and organiser extraordinaire!  Last week saw an U15 Sean McDermotts side visit Parnells to play a friendly game at Harrow Rugby Club; enjoying the new pitch there, a game of football and refreshments afterwards.  Lovely to have the opportunity to welcome visitors from another province.

The U13’s participated in the next stage of the league, it nears its conclusion with the last round on the 16th June; hopefully the boys have done enough to reach the play offs.  We hope the U15’s have a successful game against TCG in Div. 2 League Final at Ruislip and then again for their first Championship game against the same opponents on the 17/6.  With the exams near completion, the U17’s can start their League after months if revision, hopefully they will enjoy their first football games. The O14 Girls can resume their league and finally the U6-U10’s will all be off to participate in the NLS Go Games Blitz; after a brief gap in their calendar they will be looking forward to getting back on to the pitch

Continued good wishes to all the children taking the remainder of their GCSE’s and A Levels; the end is in sight.
