U13
Our Blue team had a great win on Sunday(8/8/21) over old foes Listowel Emmets reversing the result from Phase One.
The boys dug deep right from the very start with Captain Sean Martin leading by example with some lovely scores in the first quarter.
At half time we were two points up, playing some lovely football.
The boys dug deep and believed in themselves and every one of them stood up and played their hearts out. In the final quarter Listowel upped the pressure but Ballymac could sense victory and kept putting in the tackles and managed to hit the back of the net a few times. Final score Ballymac 5-11 Listowel 3-07.
The lads showed great character and determination on Sunday tonight to secure a deserved win.
The Gold team faced a strong Miltown/Castlemaine side and despite their best efforts lost out on a 2-11 to 0-5 scoreline.
