JUNIORS

Our Junior team made the best possible start to the Co. Junior League with a 4-10 to 2 – 9 victory over Desmonds in Castleisland on Saturday evening last.

The home side with wind advantage had the better of the first half and led at the break on a scoreline of 1 – 8 to 1 – 4 with Stephen Bermingham the Ballymac goal scorer.  In the second half our boys stepped up a gear and played some scintillating football.

Further goals from David Keane, Michael Herlihy and Micheal Reidy ensured victory for the Ballymac side which had a good mix of youth and experience.  They can now look forward with confidence to this weekends  game at home to Gneeveguilla on Friday night at 7.30pm.

Team: P Laide, D Leen, S Brosnan, D Long, M Sweeney, A Bonn, S Savage, E Reidy, J Leen, S Bermingham, C DeLacey, M Reidy, C Leen, D Keane, M Leen.  Subs: A Jones, J Scanlon, M Herlihy, M Collins, D Madden, J Keane, P Leen.
