Update 27th June

It was an historic weekend for Boyle GAA Club as its Cooney Motors sponsored U14s reached the All Ireland Semi Final of the National Féile na nÓg football competition which was staged in Cork, Kerry and Limerick. The Boyle team was based in Kilshannig GAA Club, Co Cork.

The adventure commenced on Friday when Boyle played its first two group games when they defeated Coralstown/Kinnegad and drew with Kanturk Wolfe Tones. They defeated the home team on Saturday morning. These results meant that Boyle topped the group and qualified for the quarter final in which they defeated Father Caseys, Abbeyfeale in Druncolliher on Saturday afternoon. It was then on to Kanturk to participate in the colourful parade of teams through the town.

Sunday morning saw the lads travel to Tralee to play Lucan Sarsfields in the All Ireland Semi Final. Despite a very brave performance, their adventure came to an end as they lost to a physically stronger and very skilful outfit.

The Club is immensely proud of the entire panel who were exemplary in their footballing skills and overall behaviour throughout the weekend.

The Club extends its thanks to the entire panel and to their dedicated management team of Gerry Cregg, Odran Feely, Noel Casey, Leonard Sutton and Simon O’Donnell, all of whom have worked so diligently for this event since last autumn. The Club also wishes to thank the Féile Committee which worked tirelessly to ensure that necessary funding and logistics were in place. A special thanks is extended to the Kilshannig families who hosted our lads over the weekend, and to the huge numbers who made the trip from Boyle and elsewhere to support the team. Thanks also to Cooney Motors and all other sponsors. Their next game is against St. Ciaran's in the championship on Thursday evening in Fuerty at 7:30pm.
