Report by Philomena Brennan:
After a good start to the Roinn A League campaign the local boys entertained Thomastown in Tom Ryall Park, Kilmanagh on Monday 13th April last. GBC playing with the assistance of a very strong breeze stunned the Thomastown defence with a well taken goal from Sean Ryan shortly after the throw in. This seemed to set the tone for the first half as the boys did not allow Thomastown to settle on the ball for any period of time in this first half. Read more

Report by Bill Cuddihy.
Graigue Ballycallan under 16’s began the 2015 season in style with a convincing win over Mooncoin in the first round of the Roinn A league. The Kilmanagh side were quickest out of the blocks racing into a 3 point lead, with scores coming from James Everard and Sean Ryan(2) before Mooncoin levelled, punishing a moment of indecision in the GBC defence.

Report by Tomás McCluskey:
Graigue-Ballycallan had their first championship football tie this year against Inistioge in the Rower on Sunday 29th March. Sixteen players were available and took to the field on an extremely stormy day. Inistioge won the toss and played downhill and with the wind in the first half. Against the run of play Ballycallan scored a goal after twenty minutes and this was the only score of the first half. Read more
