HEARTBREAK FOR JUNIOR FOOTBALLER­S

A trojan effort but our footballer­s bowed our after extra time in Mallow last Sunday. An early Beaufort goal was replied to with a Daniel O Keeffe point. Beaufort added again from play with replies from O Keeffe. Seamus O Sullvan moved to full forward and rewarded the move with an equalising Dromtarrif­fe goal. Points were added by Shane Collins and O’Keeffe before O Sullivan added his second goal and left Dromtarrif­fe 2.6 to 1.3 up at half time.

Despite an opener for Dromtarrif­fe Beaufort got 1.4 without reply and maybe only for some fantastic defensive play especially from Sean Howard, Jack Murphy, Conor O Callaghan and Tomas Howard their chances may have done more damage. O Callaghan was also instrument­al driving forward as was Denis O Donoghue and Evan Murphy. Points to O Keeffe, O Callaghan & O Donoghue in the second half which found the full time whistle 2.11 a piece and extra time.

With tired legs and aching bodies our players fought and harrassed throughout the extra time periods however only 2 points were registered by O Keeffe & O Callaghan many going just wide of the target, and then the final whistle blew as the minimum separated the teams. Our gratitude to our players and management teams for a memorable 2018.
