MINOR FOOTBALL CHAMPIONSHIP

Castlelyons 3-14 Passage 2-03

Castlelyons played Passage in the first round of the minor football championship on Thursday night last in St Vincents GAA Club on a dry bright night with conditions perfect for football. Castlelyons started very brightly and scored the first of their three first half goals after 10 mins. Castlelyons dominated play and possession playing very strongly with some great interplay between backs and forwards to take some excellent scores. Castlelyons went in at half-time leading on a score line of 3-06 to 1-01.

The second half continued on the same lines with Castlelyons dominating play and ran out worthy winners on a score of 3-14 to 2-03.

A great performance by all the panel with the next round due to be played on Thursday, 25th against Eire Og in Ballinure, Ringmahon.
