Underage round-up
Our under 13 boys played their division 1 Féile semi-final against St. Brigid’s on Sunday last in Kilbride. With a strong gale at their backs in the first half, St. Brigids built up a significant lead by half time. However, the Michael’s lads never gave up and with some good link play, they got some good scores in the second half and ended up losing on a scoreline of 2-05 to 7-09. The future is bright for this young team.
Our under 14s are due to play Castlerea in the Garda Cup on Saturday next in Ardcarne Park.
There will be a Minor Committee meeting on Thursday at 8.30pm.
