U16 NAHL Div.1
16 June 2008
Rauri Og, Cushendall 6-10
Kickhams Creggan 2-10
Played in Cushendall in perfect conditions, the Creggan boys got off to a slow
start and after 10mins were trailing 2-02 to no score, before Dannan got their
first score. Creggan battled away for
the last 10mins of the half and finished the strongest by applying constant
pressure to go in at half time 0-08 to 3-05, with two soft ‘Dall goals being
the difference.
It was half way through the second half where it was down to a 5pt game with ‘Dall leading 3-09 to 1-10 before further soft goals swayed the game.
There were good displays from Tiernan in goals, Matthew in backs, the midfield duo of Marin and Aidan and Conor in forwards.
These games will let the Creggan lads know that with further effort and work, what to expect for the retun visits in the second half of this league. Due to injuries and holidays in the team it was good to have the U-14s join the panel.
Creggan Scorers: Conor McCann (1-05), Aidan McKeown (1-0), Martin Johnston (0-03), Dannan O’Hara (0-02)
