On Saturday October 20th we hosted the annual Declan Bryne Under 14 Memorial Tournament with 6 teams competing. We had 2 groups of 3 with Graigue Ballycallan, Dicksboro and Kilcock in Group 1 and O’Loughlin’s, Young Ireland’s and Danesfort in Group 2.
In our first game Dicksboro bet us 2-8 to 1-1 and in our second game we bet Kilcock 2-6 to 0-1 and in the final game of Group 1 Dicksboro bet Kilcock 1-9 to 0-1 meaning Dicksboro qualified for the Cup Final and GBC the Shield Final.
In group 2 O’Loughlin’s bet Young Ireland’s 3-3 to 0-4. In game 2 Young Ireland’s bet Danesfort 3-2 to 1-5 and in the last game in Group 2 O’Loughlin’s bet Danesfort 4-5 to 3-5 which left us with O’Loughlin’s set to play Dicksboro in the Cup Final and Young Ireland’s to play GBC in the Shield Final.
Dicksboro were victorious in the Cup Final on a scoreline of 6-7 to 1-1. The Shield Final was very competitive finishing all even after normal time and extra time with 65’s required to settle the contest which GBC won 3 points to 2. A great day was had by all. A massive thank you to all who helped out in any way on the day and in the preparation of this prestigious tournament.
