Boys Under 8's: Our under 8 team travelled to An Tochar, Roundwood on Monday evening. We played 3 very close matches with some great skill displayed from the whole squad. Nathan made some fantastic saves in goal. Our midfield trio Dara, Sean and Cathal held up the centre of the pitch with very little getting passed them. The few that did were quickly cleared by James, Cian and Luke. Bray ended the evening ahead in a couple of the matches with some great scores and skill shown by all, well done to the team. We have a very busy few months ahead and training continues every Sat morning 10 till 11.30. New members more than welcome
