Under 11 Boys County Football Final

The Under 11 Boys Football team headed to Cashel to take on Clerihan NS in the County Final on Tuesday, November 24th. Played in difficult and windy conditions, it certainly proved to be a game of two halves as Clerihan started very strongly and they had a commanding lead as the referee blew for half time. With the aid of the breeze in the second half, Thomastown gradually began to pull back Clerihan's lead bit by bit and put them under immense pressure. Sadly, the lead that Clerihan had at half time proved to be too much to overcome. However, all of the panel can be extremely proud of their efforts and the second half performance was a wonderful display of heart and determination. Led by Evan Kennedy, who played a captain's part and gave an exhibition of blocking down all throughout the game, this young group will no doubt learn from this experience for future games. This was the first County Final for all of the panel so if this was anything to go by then the future is certainly very bright! Final score was Clerihan 6-01 Thomastown 3-04.
