Ladies Junior ‘A’ Final:
Castlerea 1.16 Boyle 1.11.
Castlerea Prove Too Strong
Castlerea proved too strong for a gallant Boyle side in the Final of the County junior ‘A’ Final on a lovely Saturday afternoon in a finely appointed Frenchpark pitch.There is no reason for the Boyle ladies to be too disappointed as they were beaten by a good side who had a number of fine players and a team who had come down from Intermediate this year. I suppose the fact that Boyle had beaten Castlerea earlier this year gave them an expectation that they could repeat the win in this final. Castlerea led by 0.10 to Boyle 1.6 at half time. The Boyle goal came just before half time from a dipping free from Nicole McDermott. Castlerea had a real ace in Rachael Ryan at centre forward who was responsible for so many of their scores. I made her game tally eight points. Boyle did threaten when the play had opened up towards the end of the extended first half but they just did not get the return they might have. Still there were good Boyle points from Brid McGowan after a good run, a very good score from Aishling Dolan and Sinead O’Donohoe added two in quick succession on 24 and 25 minutes. Meanwhile Castlerea were creating chances though missing a number in the first half when they had at least seven wides to a very meagre number for Boyle. With the lift of the goal and a slight wind assistance it was hoped that Boyle would push on but it was not to be. Early in the second half Boyle had a number of chances but did not convert these and it was not until the 11th minute that Danielle Gaffney got their first of the second half from a free. By that time Castlerea had added a number of points with Rachael Ryan responsible for four points and Stacey McGarry adding another. Nicole McDermott got a point for Boyle on 12 minutes after some good interplay but Boyle flagged and it was another ten minutes before Maria Keenehan added point number nine to leave Boyle three points in arrears. Eleanor Kennedy put Castlerea four in front and the same player sealed the game with a goal on 28 minutes shortly after a Caitriona Hanmore shot had come back off the crossbar. This put Castlerea into a seven point lead and despite two late points from Danielle Gaffney and Brid McGowan they were deserving winners. Still while this was disappointing for Boyle and a number of players will feel that they did not play up to their normal level Castlerea were a strong side. The Boyle side cannot be faulted for effort and commitment and they must always recognise that while it is always more enjoyable to win there is a lot of satisfaction and return in participation and involvement. They must continue to build from where they are and remember that they have come a long way in a short time. Credit also to their management for their efforts and the fine support that the team has.
The starting Boyle team was; Saoirse O’ Flaherty, Aoifa O’Connor, Sinead Keenehan, Sarah Keenehan, Aine O’Connor, Sinead Cummins, Suzy Keenehan, Maria Keenehan 0.1, Caitriona Hanmore 0.1, Danielle Gaffney 0.3 frees, Nicole McDermott 1 goal a free 1point (C) Aisling Dolan 0.1, Helena Sheerin, Brid McGowan 0. 2, Sinead O’Donohoe 0.2.

North Junior ‘B’ C’Ship
Boyle V Tulsk at Croghan Sunday Sept. 20th
Let’s cut to the chase. Half time Tulsk 0.10 Boyle 0.2. Full Time Tulsk 0.14 Boyle 3.6. This had echoes of the famous Boyle folklore win over Michael Glavey’s at Tulsk from yonks ago. There was also a link present in Bernie Shannon a Boyle selector and a central ‘player’ in the drama of yore. Tulsk dominated the first half and looked in complete control leading by 8 points at half time. About 15% of the Boyle supporters decided to abandon Croghan on All-Ireland Sunday and return to the capital, Boyle. Yet the die-hards, always wanting to be there when something special happened, stayed. They were rewarded. Though Tulsk added the first second-half point Boyle clawed their way back with points by Lavin, Cox and O’Connor. A benevolent wind was an advantage. A penalty by Lavin on 17 minutes came back off the post and Darragh Greenan was on hand to tap it in. Tulsk, 0.11 Boyle 1. 5 left a three point difference. Darren O’Connor with a second goal levelled things a couple of minutes later. Tulsk came back with two points which were cancelled out by a forceful run by Lavin who crashed the ball to the net. Boyle in front on 29 minutes to which Brendan McQuaid added an insurance point despite a late minor by Tulsk. Tulsk were stunned and the Boyle supporters were ………It was an unusual game. The Boyle team, which was missing a number of possible members, was as follows: C. Beirne, C. Horan, J.Healy, J. McDermott, A. Finn, J.S. Lyons, Cillian Cox, Ciaran Cox 0.1, P. Lavin 1.1, B. McQuaid 0.2, D. Kelly 0.1, D. Greenan 1.0, R. Walshe, D. O’Connor 1. 2, B. Harvey with K. Kelly, T. Lowe and Ml.P. Gilmartin and M.O’Connor injured. A lot of Boyle players did well in that second half showing heart and determination and obviously had the influence of the management at half time going into the second half time. Beirne in goals was always sound with good kick outs. The fullback line struggling in the first half did well in the second. Cillian Cox made a great determined run at a vital stage while taking a big hit. Ciaran Cox came through in that half. Peter Lavin was enigmatic and did some fine things but should consider my fisted point theory close to goals. Darren O’Connor, though injured, was the main threat up front with Riche Walshe also a presence though some of the ball forward was off the runway for him. Karl Kelly worked hard when introduced giving a good and productive pass and working back in a defensive role. All in all a very good turn around and result. They now meet Western Gaels, who beat St. Ronan’s in Boyle on Saturday night, in the Northern final in the next week-end or so.
McGovern Directional Drilling Intermediate O’Gara Cup Final:
It is reported that the above will take place on next week-end against Roscommon Gaels who beat Kilmore this week-end past in the Senior C’Ship relegation issue. Boyle played R’town, in a challenge, last Friday evening but I heard nothing from it.
U 14s’ Div. ‘A’ League Final Win:
A gallant Boyle U 14 team defeated their bogey team of late, Strokestown, at Tulsk on Saturday evening in the County Div. ‘A’ League Final. Strokestown are current county champions and this has been the fourth meeting between the sides this summer with Strokestown as narrow victors in the Feile, C’Ship and Garda Cup. This was a cracking game with some great displays, fine football and swaying fortunes. Boyle had a good spread of nine points in the first half but were still behind at half time because of two Strokestown goals. A great Dylan Mattimoe levelling goal seven minutes into the second half gave Boyle the lift they needed with Strokestown struggling to put their stamp on the game because of the great all-round efforts of many of the Boyle players. Colin Goldrick with a great display and some great free kicks pushed Boyle in front. They ended strongly with Eoin Lavin pointing and providing the pass for Goldrick to score the insurance goal. The Boyle team was as follows: T. Halligan, R. Nerney, L. Brennan, P. Nally, B. McQuaid, E. McGrath, J. Regan, M.Lavin 0.1, C. Goldrick 1.6 four frees, S. Filan 0.1, E. Lavin 0.1, R. Finneran, J. Sweeney 0.2, D. Mattimoe 1.0, P. Goldrick 0.1 and young Boylan 0.1 i.e. eight people contributing to the scoring with a fine return from Colin Goldrick and two sweet points from Sweeney in the first half. While it is perhaps unfair to nominate players in this fine team performance there were star turns in the way Brennan came and attacked the ball at the back and the overall work rate of the back line against a very good opposition. The spread of the scores was a great thing as was the free taking of Goldrick with one senior effort in the second half. My ‘Man of the Match’, where there were a number of contenders, goes to Boyle’s centre back Evan McGrath. Not only had he to try and curb Strokestown’s best player Compton but he drove forward with a determination, courage and skill which was just great to watch. So well done to the boys, management, the parents who were very supportive and it was great to hear the traditional back to Boyle cavalcade in full voice for this final U 14 game of the season.

Ladies Club;
The highlight of the weekend was the victory in the semi-final of the County Junior A Championship over Western Gaels in a keenly contested game in Ballinameen on Saturday evening last. This was a cracking all-action match with fine sores, great pace, endevour and fitness levels. Boyle 2.6 to 0.5 had a good lead at half time but Western Gaels came back strongly at the beginning of the second half and it took a fine goal by the ever dangerous Breege McGowan to put daylight between the sides again. The final score (if I'm right) was Boyle 3.8 Western Gaels 1.10. Best for Boyle included McGowan, McDermott, Gaffney but there were many fine players, on both sides, in this entetaining encounter.
Their County Final opponents will be Castlerea and this game is scheduled for Saturday week September the19th, but no time or venue has yet been notified.
