Match Reports for Juvenile Hurlers - Saturday 7th May 2011

Posted on

1.  Kilmacud Crokes Under 9s A Panel

 

The boys were up against a fancied Cluain Tarbh side on Saturday 7th May in Oatlands. There was some drizzle early on but the pitches were in great condition. The under 9s played one 40 minute match with each half composed of 10 minutes ground hurling and 10 minutes where lifting the ball is allowed. The ball was flying during the ground hurling, but there were encouraging signs of boys gaining the confidence to lift and strike from the hand too.

 

Crokes had a handy win overall, with victories in all three games:

 

Game One 1-4 to 0-2

Game Two 14-6 to 0-0 

Game Three 9-2 to 1-0.

 

Thanks to all mentors and parents for looking after the teams and helping to set out and clear away the pitches.  Ferdia Marnell

The squad travelled out to play O'Tooles and the lads started slowly with the initial phase of ground hurling but started to come into their own when the air hurling started. Some wonderful scores and defensive displays from all 3 teams.

Game One 4-8 to 1-1
Game Two 10-2 to 2-0
Game Three 7-2 to 0-0  Conor O’Cathasaigh
