Club Notes 15/1/13


The under 21 footballers got the playing season underway last Sunday 13/1/13, when they took on Kilmurry in the opening game of the Glenville U21 Invitational Football Tournament at John William Goulding Park. On a dry cold day and with soft underfoot conditions both sides started slowly and it wasn’t until Richie O Sullivan hit the back of the Kilmurry net mid-way through the first half that the Kilmacs began to take control. Playing some fast attacking football the home side went in at the break ahead, 1-5 to 0-4. When the teams resumed for the second half the Kilmacs once again showed they were the superior outfit and with Oisin O Sullivan grabbing the second Kilmac goal the result was never in doubt with the Kilmacs running out winners on a score line of Kilmacabea  2-11  Kilmurry 1-5. Kilmacabea Team: David O Donovan, Thomas Jennings, Shane McDermott, Sean O Regan, Martin Collins, Liam Thompson, Niall Hayes, Joseph Collins, Eamon O Sullivan, Diarmuid O Callaghan, Declan O Sullivan, Aidan Williamson, Richie O Sullivan, Padraig Burke, Oisin O Sullivan, Subs: Kevin Whooley, Padraig McCarthy, Kieran O Sullivan.
A medal presentation for the u13 footballers and the minor football league winners will take place on the 26th of January at 8:30pm in the GAA Pavilion. Donal Og Hodnett, O Donovan Rossa and Cork footballer will be the guest of honour on the night. Donal Og was a member of the Cork u21 football team that defeated Kerry in the 2012 Munster final and recently captained CIT against the Cork Senior Footballers in the McGrath Cup. Everyone is welcomed to attend and the unveiling of the Player, Young player and Club person of the year will also take place on the night.
