The U16 footballers took on neighbors Carbery Rangers in the quarter final of the championship on Friday 9th September in Skibbereen. On a wet evening with a strong wing it was tough conditions for football. While the Kilmacs opened the scoring it was the Ross men who were making the early impression and they got a huge boost with a goal in the early minutes followed by some points. The middle of the first half was competitive with neither side having an advantage. Towards the end of the half the Kilmacs began to play with more direction and closed the gap with some fine points from Kevin Whooley to leave the score Kilmacabea 0-5 Carbery Rangers 1-3. With Richie O’Sullivan coming in at half time the attack was now sharper and the balance was tipped when Richie scored a goal after 8 minutes and a slight gap was opened. The game continued to be competitive to the end and while the Kilmacs were ahead they were pushed all the way and had to work very hard for the result. The final score of 1-12 to 1-4 would have been a lot tighter if the Ross lads had availed of the opportunities created. This was a good test of the resolve of the team and should stand to them.
The U12 footballers played Gabriel Og in Leap on Monday evening, 12th September.
