East U-14 Division 2 Football Final


De La Salle 5-4 Clan na Gael 2-3
We won our first trophy of the year when our U-14 footballers won the Division 2 eastern championship defeating Clan na Gael in Walsh park on Saturday last. The wet and windy conditions were a factor in the match and we had the wind in the first half. Clan na Gael played very well against the wind and midway through the half lead by 1-0 to 0-1, our point coming from the excellent Evan Hayes. We improved dramatically after that and scored 3-2 in the next ten minutes, the three goals coming from Alex Keane and both points from Conor O'Shea, to lead 3-3 to 1-2 at the break.

The second half was always going to be difficult against the wind and so it proved early on. Our opponents pressed but for poor shooting would have narrowed our lead. They only had a point to show for their endeavours and when Dylan Stickel goaled for us it made their task more difficult. We continued to play well and even when our opponents goaled we replied with a goal from Josh Kelly and a point from Sultan Andnekan to run out deserving winners.
Afterwards captain Daire O'Keefe accepted the trophy on behalf of the team

East U-14 Hurling Championship


De La Salle 2-9 Passage 3-6
Our U-14 hurlers played a very entertaining draw with Passage in Gracedieu last Tuesday. We trailed 2-3 to 2-2 at half time having played with the breeze. An improved second half display saw us take a one point lead before a Passage goal restored their lead. Our lads came back with two late points to force the draw after a very good game.


Panel: Daire Treacy, Alex Hoban McGuire, Conor Cummins, Glen Buckley, Sultan Andnekan, Alex Keane, Conor O'Shea, Evan Hayes, Kieran O'Sullivan, Cormac Dawson, Josh Kelly, Kieran Kennedy, Jack Twomey, Darragh Crowe, Conor Keane, Ben O’Neill, Jack Cox, Jack Douglas, Niall Dawson.


Munster Football Championship

Hard luck to Stephen Dalton who was a member of the Waterford senior football panel who came agonisingly close to pulling off a major shock in Dungarvan last Saturday night. Commiserations to Oran Keevers who played on the junior team that also went down to Cork.
