1st Soccer Munster League SemiFinal

It wasn’t to be for our 1st year boys soccer team today who came up short against a strong St Caimin’s side in the semi final of the North Munster League.

In desperately challenging weather conditions, the boys put in a great effort but finished second best.

Onwards and upwards boys – we still have another chance at silverware as we prepare to take on Crosshaven in the Munster Cup in two weeks time. Well done lads, we go again!!
