BOYS U 11 La Liga - BUFC U11 Boys V KEUFC - League - Cleveragh Astro | (NEUTRAL) (WIN)
The under 11s Red team finished off their league season with a 7-1 victory over Enniscrone yesterday.
Both teams agreed to play 8 a side, meaning time on the ball was at a premium.
It took the Reds a while to adapt but we managed to get in 2-1 ahead at the interval with goals from Conor Crossan and Lincoln Barlow.
A much improved 2nd half showing saw further goals from Conor, Lincoln, Conor Hughes and Jamie Nicholson, finishing the season off on a great note.
It's been a great season for the both the Red and White teams, and the improvements of all players technically, thanks to regular games, and plenty of game time for all, is clear for all to see . Roll on next year

Ballisodare United entertained neighbours Ballygawley Celtic on Thursday night in Ballisodare Astro Facility with Mark Irwin the man in the middle.

After a couple of close calls Ballisodare took the lead when a Paul Scanlon corner kick went directly into the top corner.
Ballisodare tried to grab a second but hit the woodwork and Ballygawley defended their goalmouth with everything they had.
Midway through the second half the home side were given the opportunity to double their lead when awarded a spot kick for a handball.

BOYS U 14 GRPA - BUFC U14 Boys V Strand Celtic - League - Strandhill - (AWAY) (LOSS)
Unfortunately it was a loss for the u14s in their last league game of the season.
Saying that the score line did not represent the game with both sides evenly matched throughout but Strand converted the chances they got.
With alot of our u14s absent today we had to call on our u13s Max Verdon, Charlie Nicholson, Ethan Stoodley and Bobby Sweeney with all 4 of them playing brilliantly.
All 14 of our players put in a great shift and although down by 5 goals they never stopped working until the final whistle.
Daniel Connolly β½β½ got both our goals today, with Bobby, Ethan S, Adam, Ben K and Conor all going close.
Our squad today was
Philip McManus, Sean Kelly, Max Verdon, Charlie Nicholson, Ethan Collery, Callum Kenny, Adam Finn, Lee Melly, Ben Kelly, Conor Keenan, Daniel Connolly, Ethan Stoodley & Bobby Sweeney
