‘Championes’
Boyle 0.11 Michael Glavey’s 0.8.
Boyle won their first straight ‘A’ County Minor Championship Final since 1939 (John Joe Nerney & co.) at Hyde Park, in miserble weather, this afternoon. The day was reminiscent of the Connacht Final day in that respect.
I fancied that, barring disaster, Boyle would prevail on this occasion as the minor age group was supplemented by some fine younger players. The first half was mundane enough and the teams went in level at 4 points each. Boyle switched Donal Smith to full forward on the resumption and he posed a considerable threat there as one would anticipate. Boyle had an excellent period through the early period of the second half and went into a four or five point lead. This could have been added to but for a couple of misses. Glavey's brought it back to 3 towards the end and this meant a few anxious moments for all of us but it ended in a worthy victory. The result means an excellent team and management team got their just reward. This championship was won not just in the Hyde but also in the Abbey Park in the classic game v Roscommon Gaels and that dogged encounter in Kiltoom v Clann na Gael. Today Boyle generally looked the most likely winners but it being the final meant it was only endorsed at teh final whistle. So congrats to all involved as I have said with the Minor and Senior Committees, the sponsors National Automation Limited, Conor McGowan physio., the fine support et al. With an excellent team and panel on board for the next few years we will be looking to build on this win. There are league finals at minor and under 16 also to come.
The team today was; J.McDermott, B.Furey, L. Harrington (Capt.), L. Brennan, E. McGrath (probably, considering his age, the player of the series), T. McKenna, P. McDermott, E. Smith (0.1), D. Smith (0. 2. 1 x 45), C. McPadden (0.2), J. McCrann (0.2), C. Goldrick (0.1), L. Roddy (0.2), M. Lavin, D. East (0.1). Subs used Mark Goldrick, Paul Sweeney, Eoin Lavin with C. Tivnan, D. Mattimoe, J. Regan, S. Filan, D. Boylan, J. Nally, J.Sweeney, J. Morris, P. Nally, J. Gunning. Manager Vinny Flanagan with J. Conroy, T. Kearney and L.Conroy with Pat Goldrick Jnr. and young Brennan. Sponsors; National Automation Limited who are based in the large green premises in Lower Deerpark.

Pride of place this week must go to our magnificent National Automation Limited Minor football panel which bridged a seventy two year gap on Sunday in Hyde Park when they won the County Division 1 Minor Football Championship by defeating a gallant Michael Glavey’s team. The game was played in difficult weather conditions and it was a tribute to both teams that they battled to the end and the outcome was in doubt up until near the final whistle. Team Captain Luke Harrington, in accepting the cup, thanked the team management of Vinny Flanagan, Jonathan Conroy, Tom Kearney and Liam Conroy and the many other Club mentors and coaches who had worked with them since they first commenced playing football. He thanked the entire panel for their commitment throughout the year. The Club is grateful to all involved and to their sponsor National Automation Limited who sponsored a welcome homecoming meal for the panel and mentors in Mericks. Their season doesn’t end yet as they have the Division 1 League Semi Final to look forward to shortly. The Club will be involved in another final on Sunday next when the U16s’ travel to Elphin to take on St Croan’s at 2pm.
The U10 Roscommon Herald football blitz is scheduled for the Abbey Park on Saturday-weather permitting.
The National Automation sponsored U21 team is currently in preparation for the upcoming County Championship.
The McGovern Directional Drilling Senior team may have a fixture in the North West League at the weekend-see fixtures.
Thanks to all who helped with stewarding for the Division 2 Minor Semi Final game in the Abbey Park at the weekend.
Scór na nOg will soon be getting under way and those under age seventeen who wish to participate in set dancing, figure dancing, instrumental music, solo singing, novelty act, quiz or recitation are asked to contact Club PRO Martin Dolan.

Congratulations are extended to Dessie McLoughlin on completing the “4 Peaks Challenge” at the weekend. Best wishes are extended to former Club player Roch Hanmore who gets married in Australia next weekend. The Club extends its deepest sympathy to the Connolly Family, Termon Road on the sad passing of little Mari.
