Senior Championship Round 2 in Ballyleague 

The McGovern Civils sponsored Boyle went in search of back-to-back wins in Ballyleague, but it wasn’t going to be easy playing Faithleachs who were very much in their game against Clan na nGael and a lot to prove after making the jump up from Intermediate last year and winning a Connacht .  

Faithleachs’ started this game on the forefront and put in a huge first half performance leading 9 points to 5 at the break. With a slight wind in the second half Boyle started to claw back the 4-point lead and levelled  9 points apiece going into the final quarter. Faithleachs’ then pulled away again kicking 3 points ahead. However, Donie scored a goal from an Evan McGrath Pass equalising again. Both teams swapped points again and were level in injury time (6 min) with one play left. Cian McKeon got on the end of a Sean Purcell Pass and was fouled on the 45 m line and kicked the resulting free in a pulsating encounter. Best wishes and speedy recovery to Oisin Cregg who had to leave the field of play after a head injury.  

Team Rob Kearney ,Luke Glennon, Conor Flanagan, Evan McGrath, Tadgh McKenna, Dylan East, Roch Hanmore, Cathal Feely, Oisin Cregg, Sean Purcell, Mark O’Connor, Donie Smith, Cian McKeon & Colly Goldrick. 

Subs used Jack Moran for Colly Goldrick; Enda Smith for Mark O’Connor, Killian Cox for Oisin Cregg Eden Kerins for Dylan East. 

Final Score 1-13 to 0-15 points  

This leaves Boyle and Clan on 4 points after 2 rounds with both teams playing each other in the Hyde on Saturday week for First and Second places.  Throw in is on the 3rd of September (Saturday at 6.30)

Junior Championship Rd 2  

The Cooney Motors Sponsored Boyle Juniors played Strokestown away in round 2 of the Junior A Championship. Leading by 2 points going into the break with a good first half performance Boyle just couldn’t convert the goal chances and were left with too much to do losing out on a score line of 1-13 to 11 points. Very good performance by Marc O’Connor, Joe Sweeney and Liam Casey. This leaves it with all to do against Table toppers St Michaels in the final round next Friday night in Boyle on the 2nd of September.  

Thanks to all the support over the weekend and hope to see you all out again!

Around the Club 

- Our Nordson Medical U14 girls have finished off their competitive games for what was a largely successful season for the team. Their season got off to a slow start with defeats to Roscommon Gaels and St Barry’s in the first two rounds of the league. But following this, the team went on to record five wins on the trot to win the division 3A league final, beating St Barry’s in a very competitive and entertaining game in the final. They continued their winning streak by winning their first 2 rounds of the Championship against Oran and Castlerea before losing their third-round to St Barry’s. The team went on to play St Brigid’s in a hugely competitive quarter final and unfortunately lost out to a strong St Brigid’s side. Well done to all the girls for their fantastic achievements in the 2022 season and thanks to all the managers and parents who supported them on their journey. The team consisted of a panel of 30 players who all contributed to the success of the team in 2022. The very best of luck to the girls as they continue their football into 2023.

McGovern Civils Senior Men 

Our McGovern Civils Senior Men made the ideal start to their Senior Championship campaign with a four-point victory over Western Gaels at Abbey Park on Friday evening. Boyle had the perfect start - scoring three goals and two points to Western Gaels two points in the opening fifteen minutes. Daire Cregg scored two goals and a point, while Donie Smith raised the third green flag. Dylan East scored Boyle’s other point. Following a Western Gaels free, further points from Cian McKeon and Donie Smith stretched the margin further as Boyle held a 3.04 to 0.3 lead at half-time.  

Western Gaels began the second half the stronger scoring a goal and a couple of points. However, midfielders Roch Hanmore and Cathal Feely began winning the middle sector which provided Boyle the platform to wrap up the victory. Cian McKeon (4) and Daire Cregg increased their personal tallies which insured the Frenchpark-based side could not claw back the margin. 3 further points from Daire Cregg and a brilliant strike from distance from Colin Goldrick ensured victory for Boyle.  

Team: R. Kearney; L. Glennon, C. Flanagan, D. Casey; T. McKenna, S. Purcell, D. East; R. Hanmore, C. Feely; C. McKeon, E. McGrath, O. Cregg; D. Cregg, D. Smith (C), C. Goldrick.  

Subs used: K. Cox, M. O'Connor, and E. Kerins. 

The Well & M Kerins sponsored Intermediate Ladies 

The Ladies had a well-deserved win over Éire Óg on a beautiful Friday evening in Loughglinn to kick off their Championship campaign. Huge thanks to Kieran Feely as always for a well-written and enjoyable write-up of the game, read more on kieranfeelymedia.com. 

This team is really starting to hit their stride with lots of young blood maturing into the squad nicely. They worked hard for each other from start to finish and they suitably rounded off the scoring at 5.16 to 1.08. The best is yet to come for this young team and we’re looking forward to seeing them progress this season. 

 Team: R. Johnson, S. Kerins, I. King, N. Beirne, S. Keenehan (C), R. Cox, M. McKeon (0-01), G. Flanagan (0-1), R. Wynne (1-02), H. Kerins, A. Feely (1-08, one free), M. Ward (0-1), A. Roddy (2-01), K. Harrington (0-1), N. Regan (1-02).

Cooney Motors Junior Men 

The clash between our Cooney Motors Junior Men and our neighbours from Ballinameen in Round One of the Championship was highly anticipated - and it did not disappoint! It was clear that this game was set to be physical from the start, and it was a great learning curve for our younger players. David Flanagan popped 3 points, and Mark O’Donohoe, Colin O’Sullivan and Niall O’Donnell all kicked fine scores with the aid of the wind. At halftime, our men were on the up on a scoreline of 0.11 to 1.04.  

Ballinameen found a gear and improved in the second half with 2 crucial goals with one from the penalty spot. There were fine displays from Tadhg Lowe, David Callaghan, Colin O’Sullivan, Niall O’Donnell and David Flanagan. Aaron Sharkey also had a huge clearance off the line in the dying moments. Boyle were 2 points down with minutes to go and found the goal they were looking for from a well-worked move assisted by Connor Deery and fisted into the net by Callaghan. With that we were a point up in injury time but Ballinameen got a free from midfield. They sent it in long, and it was flicked on and over the bar. And on that note came the final whistle, and both teams ended up sharing the spoils for the opening round. Final score from a sunny Nash Park in Frenchpark was 1.15 to 3.09. 

Team: S. Garavan, N. Brennan (C), C. Beirne, J. Coyle, D. Valentine, D. Flanagan, L. Casey, K. Cox, T. Lowe, J. Sweeney, M. O’Donohoe, C. Deery, N. O’Donnell, C. O’Sullivan, M. O’Connor. 

Subs used: D. Callaghan, A. Sharkey, S. Kane, L. McGrath, D. Duggan
