U10 Tullaroan blitz – Sunday 30/8/2015
Report by Philly Cody
Well done to the under 10’s who travelled to Tullaroan last Sunday. They played two matches and were victorious in both. In the first game the boys played Galmoy. They opened up a commanding lead with Elliot Teehan(3-1) and Jeff Neary(2-2) to the fore with scores. GBC were solid in defence with Sean Roberts and Ryan Corcoran keeping the Galmoy attack’s at bay. The boys continued to dominate in the second half which saw Sean Roberts score 3 goals. The boys won well on a scoreline 11-10 to 2–4 and set up a second match against Tullaroan. Read more
