U14s fixture v. St Kerrills

.
Against what appeared to be a bigger stronger outfit the Glenamaddy U14 boys proved that size doesn't matter!
In a skillful and fast moving display the Glenamaddy lads showed that enthusiasm, teamwork and skill will always win the day as they rattled the score along.  Early pressure was soon rewarded as they marched into a 1 - 2 lead before St Kerrills began to show some attacking flair.  However they were kept out by Glenamaddy who soon broke out to push the score along again.
Indeed so dominant were Glenamaddy by now, that it was fully twenty minutes before the St Kerrills lads managed a score. St Kerrills then scored two goals in very quick succession to trim their arrears to 3 - 5 to 2 - 0.  This, pretty much, was the end of the St K's resistance and at half time the score stood at Glenamaddy 3 - 7, St Kerrills 2 - 0.

The second half saw the longest barren period of the game as it took Glenamaddy 6 minutes to convert pressure into points.  They had peppered the St K's goal but a flurry of wides was their only reward. Eventually, though, their persistance and dominance paid off as they finally finished the game out of sight of the St K's lads with the score ending at Glenamaddy 6 - 12 to St Kerrills 2 -2.
If this is a glimpse of the future of Glenamaddy football then there  are some exciting times ahead.
Well done lads!
