Under-10 Blitz in St Loman's ...

Shamrocks’ under 10s had their penultimate outing of the year on Friday when they made the short journey to St Loman's to take on the hosts in a series of 9 a side matches. There was extra excitement for the players as these games were played under the excellent floodlights in St Loman's and it’s fair to say that the Shamrocks boys raised their game accordingly. Conditions were perfect for football and seventy local boys showcased their skills and every match was evenly contested as classmates, friends, cousins and neighbours battled each other fiercely but sportingly to give their respective colours the advantage. The game of Gaelic football is certainly in rude health judging by the skills on display. Afterwards all the players were treated to well earned treats and everyone left happy after a great evening’s entertainment. Our thanks to St Loman's for inviting our lads and to the young referees Tadgh Kenny, Jack Geoghegan, Killian Plunkett, Thomas Meehan, Ciaran Smyth and Eoghan Kenny who controlled the games fairly and sensibly.

The following players represented Shamrocks on the night: Ruairi Kelly, Charlie Murtagh, Ryan Mc Namee, Sam Briody, Nathan O’ Reilly, Fionn Ledwith, Evan Nohilly, Elliott Harte, MJ Burke, Jamie Murtagh, Jamie Timoney, Darragh Ryan Oisin Gavin, Harry Tilson, Conor Walsh, Christian Conway, Jonah Hassett, Conor Matthews, Cian Traynor, Theo Kelly, Sam Phillips, Colm Clinton, Rian Sheerin, Hugo Corroon, Darragh Daly, Dylan Byrne, Manus Kelly, Scott Farrelly, Ryan Keaveney, Padraig Regan, Alfie Rock, Shay Leavy, Killian Hand, Shane Boner, Luke Kelly and Conor Glynn.
