Our minors came away with a win against Annascaul /Lispole last week on a scoreline of 1-13 to 1-08.

Senior B’s

Danny Greaney opened the scoring with a point from play, Na Gaeil replied with a point. David Moriarty quick to add another point to St pats play with Brian Murphy adding another point soon after. Na Gaeil managed to get two points and a goal before David O’Callaghan stepped up and scored another point. St Pats 0-04 Na Gaeil 1-03

Na Gaeil scored four points from play in the first few minutes of the second half, David O’Callaghan once again added a point to St Pats score. Na Gaeil scored another point to keep them ahead, Adrian Greaney quick to respond with a point of his own with Gavin Collins also putting his name on the board with a point.

Another point from Na Gaeil to keep their lead and one final point from play for Adrian Greaney. This match had rolling substitutes throughout the game, with players such as Gavin Collins and Eoghan Dillane making a return to the field.

New Player Cian O’Shea made his mark on the field also by being available on all areas of the field when needed.
