U10 Dicksboro Tournament

Body

With a very early start for the boys, the first game was in the fog .  Despite an early goal and a pt. we didn't get into the game.  We were beaten by Callan, 4-2 to 1-1.   

We then played O'Loughlin Gaels . O'Loughlins went ahead early on but Crokes scored  3  goals to take the lead and stayed in front to win the game, 4-2 to 4-0.  

We then played Mooncoin  in the final group game, showed no mercy for a hard fought win, 3-4 to 0-0.  

We played Naas in the quarter final, hurled steadily always ahead with comfortable win.

In the Semi Final we again met Callan.   An early goal settled crokes.  With Crokes ahead at half time,  the lads defended mightily to restrict Callan to a single score in the second half  and won 2-2 to 1-1. 

In the final against Dicksboro,  playing  on a full pitch,  starting  against the wind  we went behind early. With 10 minutes gone it was still a managable 3-1 to 0-1, but Dicksboro got  2-1 in the space of 2 minutes to lead at half time by  5 goals and 2pts  to 1pt. Great credit is due to the lads for not giving up and with the wind in the second half the boys battled well  but  finished second to a fine Dicksboro side.  Final score 5-5 to 0-1.
