Boys' Final Despair

Hard luck to the boys who lost their Division Two football final against Wilkinstown N.S. on Saturday, November 25th.

In what a tough and enthralling encounter, Kildalkey got off the mark wiith a fine score from Caemerhon. Tight defending from Wilkinstown limited them to one more score from Cian before half time, leaving the half time score 0-4 to 0-2.

The second half saw Kildalkey launch wave after wave of attack but Wilkinstown held firm. Fine scores from Aaron, Caemerhon and Jamie saw Kildalkey down by two at the death and when the final whistle blew, it was in Wilkinstown's goal mouth, trying desperately to get the winning score.

However, it wasn't to be. The boys can feel very proud of their performance, which saw them defend superbly for long periods and a little more luck could well have seen them sneak a win at the death. Particularly unfortunate was the injury to Jamie before the match.

The boys can hold their heads high though after what was a terrific campaign.

Football Blitz

In June, the footballers from 4th, 5th and 6th class took part in a football blitz, consisting of eight different teams. Eventually, the eight team were whittled down to four.

On Monday 25th June, the semi finals took place. Eventually, Caoimhe's teams and Leah's team made their way to the final where they did battle.

A very tight battle ensued, with some great football on show. Eventually, Caoimhe's team got on top and eked out the win. Well done to both teams and indeed, to all who took part in the blitz!
