North Board Championship Semi-final - Leaving Certs!


Hard luck to Na Gleannta

Hard luck to Na Gleannta minor team who lost out to Caltra in the North Board Championship semi-final last week. This was a game that was hard fought with both sides struggling to pull away from the other with the result in doubt  right up to the final whistle.  Na Gleannta suffered a set back early in the 1st half when both Mickie Fox and Nigel Fahy, two key players, were forced to go off due to injury. At half time Caltra led 0-4 to 0-3 with the Na Gleannta scores coming from Keith Davis. Throughout the game many players featured for Na Gleannta but the "man of the match" performance was given by Peter Lohan for his skillful defensive play.   Superb free taking by Keith Davis from almost impossible angles could not go unnoticed but unfortunately Caltra were stronger and the game ended on a scoreline of Caltra 0-7 Na Gleannta 0-5.
Thanks to the panel of players who put in such a huge effort to reach this point in the competition and we are very proud of them all. Thanks also to the management team of Paddy Joyce, Cathal Dowd, David Burke and Michael Curtin  and to all who supported the team.

Team : Brendan Smith, Paddy Kelly, Peter Lohan, James Burke, Ross Connolly, Anthony Comer, Ben Conneally, Michael Fox, Fergal Dowd, Cormac Raftery, Keith Davis 0-5, Gerard Nolan, Stephen Fox, Nigel Fahy and Mark Conneally. Subs Used : Cathal Hynes, Peter T Keaveney, Jonathan Mannion and Eoin Keady.
