Our Junior Football team kicked off their campaign last September in the Cumann na mBunscoil League . We were up against some very tough competition , particularly in two local derbys against St. Kevins and St. Malachy's . Unfortunately St. Malachy's proved too strong for us on the day , but we came out on top in a very closely contested battle with St. Kevin's. The top three teams in the group went forward to the next round . We finished a very respectable fourth in the group , which gave our players a rest for the winter break .
Our next competition is the Fingal League .We got back into training in February in preparation for the matches beginning in March . However due to inclement weather conditions and only two weks of school in March , we were unable to get started . We will, however, be looking forward to April when we have six fixtures to fulfill.
The schools we are up against this time round are Hartstown N.S. and Mountview N.S. We must play each team twice ; once at home and once away . We have a very large panel of players and competition for places is ongoing . Each and every boy has played his part whether starting every match , as a substitute or just playing one match .
We look forward to the rest of our fixtures .
