AGBs U17s Minor team were in action on both Monday and Friday evening. After a long break from matches this team were bursting to get going and played two excellent matches.

On Friday evening they played Clara Gaels in Ballymoney and it's finished Clara Gaels 2-12 to AGB 1-7. It was a tough encounter for AGBs minors, but the scoreline is no reflection of the effort put in by them all.

 

The Juvenile section were inaction too with plenty of matches. U13 Div 2 were away to Annacurra, where they too had an excellent game of football. The final score finished AGB 11-12 to Annacura 2-05.

U13 Div 3 were away to Clan na Gael. A tough match for the AGB boys saw them play a great match, but unfortunately they suffered a strong defeat. U11s travelled to Donard. All the lads played their hearts out and we had plenty of scores in both halves. Close run to the final minutes against a very strong opposition in Donard but the lads never gave up and clinched a win with the final kick of the game. A margin of 2 points sealed a hard won victory. 

 

AGBs U12 girls played Blessington  at home in Pearses Park, on the Juvenile Pitch last Thursday evening in two excellent matches. Well done girls great football was on display.
