Kilmacabea Notes 17/3/12
Missing at least six first choice players through injury and other commitments Kilmacabea Juniors travelled to Ballydehob last Saturday evening for their opening game of the new season. A rather experimental combination took the field under lights more in hope than confidence. However the home side Gabriel Rangers were probably similarly depleted. At the end of a lively first half Kilmacs were just a point up at 0 – 7 to 1 – 3. On the resumption a penalty was expertly tucked away by Ger O Donovan. He added another goal from play at the three quarter stage. These scores proved to be the difference at the end. Kilmacs bagged the two league points on a score of 2 – 10 to 1 – 7. Scorers Ger O Donovan 2 – 4 (1 – 3 frees) Joe Collins 0 – 5 (0 – 3 frees) John O Sullivan 0 – 1 (free) .
In the U 16 football league St Colum’s with limited numbers were the visitors to Leap on Sunday evening 11th March. The game was competitive but the home team had a clear advantage in most positions and were able to fashion a comfortable win.

Kilmacabea Notes 10/3/12
The minor footballers travelled to Newcestown on Sunday morning 4th March to play the home team in the league. With a few players unavailable the team was grateful to those who made the effort and they didn’t let the side down. With each and everyone playing their part it was a good performance with a lot of positives. While the scoreline didn´t go in their favour the gap was made look worse by a soft penalty in the last minute. If the commitment of all the players is given the team shows that they will be well able to compete.
The final score was Kilmacabea 0-7 Newcestown 1-10
The U14 footballers began their campaign away to Kilbrittain on Sunday morning also. The team competed well in the first half but the greater strength of the opposition in key positions tipped the balance in their favour as the game went on. This team is competing at 15 a side and with limited numbers is very dependent on some very young players in order not to forfeit. With a few games they should find their balance. Final score Kilmacabea 1 - 2 Kilbrittain 6 - 6
