Amid the hailstones that made playing conditions extremely difficult, Gaels U10s overcame Ederny last night (Monday 13th May) to record their 3rd victory in this year's Derrygonnelly tournament. Having started well the Gaels were controlling the first half leading 7 - 1 with 3 minutes left. A late surge by St Josephs however brought the half time score to 7 - 5.
Gaels started the second half strongly and when they put over another 3 points the game was all but over. As the evening got colder and the hailstones more intense a final 3 point flourish left the Gaels with a 13 - 7 win.
The team for the match - Daniel Johnson, Harry O'Hare, Conall McCaffrey, Shay Conway (captain), Jack Palmer, Conor Murphy (2 points), James O'Donnell (6 points), Jamie Mc Ardle (1 point), Calum Dunne (1 point), Ryan Mc Donnell (2 points), Ciaran Burns, Michael McDonald (1 point), Daragh Smith, Matthew Cox, Tom Kettyles
The B team recorded thier first defeat of the year when they went down to a much stronger Ederny team. Facing similar conditions to the A team, they struggled to get going in the heavy conditions, finally losing out 11 - 1. The team for this match - Donal, Mc Manus, Megan Sharkey, Naomi Mc Hugh, Emma Markey (1 point), Orla Murphy (captain), Oisin Mag Uidir, Matthew Mc Cusker, Naoise Whitley, Toni Whitley, Eolan O'Reilly Coalton, Deirbhile O'Reilly Coalton, Jack Wray, Harry Henry, Loren Jones.

U12 blitz a huge success |
|
|
|
The omens were good for a successful blitz on Sunday May 5th when the sun came out on Brewster Park. 7 visiting teams joined the Gaels for the first blitz of 2013 - Drumragh, Dungannon, Swanlinbar, Bellaghy, Moy, Carrickmore, and Lurgan.
After 2 rounds it was difficult to predict the eventual winners as all teams were on the same points. The final round of games however made all the difference and as the teams split into 2 group, competing for the cup and shield, it was still difficult to predict the victors.
The shield final saw a late surge by Carrickmore pip the Gaels by a single point, whilst the cup game produced a more comfortable victory for Bellaghy.
Many thanks to all those who helped on the day, the referees, the umpires, score keepers, tea makers. Your work was greatly appreciated by the youth committee, the visiting clubs and the players.
Finally a special word to Caelan Corrigan from the Gaels and Gavin Shields from Drumragh who both unfortunately ended up injured. Get well soon both of you. |

Victory number 2 in Derrygonnelly tournament |
|
|
|
On Friday night the Gaels U10 team hosted Belnaleck in Brewster Park in the second round of the Derrygonnellly tournament. Fresh from their victory over Erne Gaels the previous week the team got quickly into their stride notching their first score after only a minute. Belnaleck fought back quickly and equalised straight from the kick out. The next 10 minutes were fairly tight until a couple of point opened up a gap that stretched to 5 by the break 8 - 3.
The second half was a much different affair with Gaels taking control of the game sharing the scores among 8 players to run out 22 - 6 winners.
The team, captained by Shay Conway, was Conor Murphy (5 points), Michael McDonald, Jack Palmer, Daniel Johnson, Conall McCaffrey, Matthew Cox (2 points), Harry O'Hare (1 point), Ciaran Burns (2 points), Calum Dunne (2 points), Daragh Smith (2 points), James O'Donnell (7 points), Jamie McArdle (1 point). |
