Kilmeena visited Islaneady in our 3rd game of division 6 decider. This team which consists of some of our older boys, minors, players coming back from injury and first team fringe players. This is probably the club's most important team as it is the link to a thriving underage structure and a healthy senior panel where there is competition for first team positions. This was a wonderful performance and you would be proud to experience the endeavour and skill on show. A special word goes out to 3 young men that made their debut today, Paul Hoban, Josh Mulchrone and John McGlynn. They were terrific. The future of the club is very bright with these lads coming through. That's 3 wins from 3 games. Well done lads. Kilmeena Abu! Match report Darren Madden.

Division 2, Round 5. Tuesday 24th April, 2018 Kilmeena were at home to Ballintubber for this 5th round game of the Spring League. On a chilly evening with just a light breeze and a break from the rain, conditions were good for the game of football. A game best summarised as ‘..........one that Kilmeena dominated for long periods but failed to make possession count on the scoreboard ‘ The Kilmeena lads effectively owned the ball for the first 25 minutes of the game but only had a solitary point to show for their possession dominance on the scoreboard. In fairness, the visitors weren’t exactly troubling the scoreboard operator up to this stage either – in fact, Ballintubber hadn’t troubled the scoreboard operator at all during this period. And then it happens – the visitors lob the ball in the direction of their half forward line, find themselves in lots of space and a few seconds later, the ball is in the back of the Kilmeena net. Ballintubber then pressurised the Kilmeena kick-out and their efforts were rewarded with a further goal and 3 points. Kilmeena did manage another point before the small whistle to leave a scoreline of 2 – 3 to 0 -2 in favour of the visitors. Aided by a slight breeze, Kilmeena began the second half brightly and notched up a couple of points to reduce the Ballintubber lead down to 5 points. But the visitors, sensing the opportunity to bag 2 valuable league points, were not going to lie down and they responded with a point from play and a free. Try as they did, Kilmeena could not get the scores that their efforts warranted. When Liam Moore came on in the last quarter, Kilmeena’s conversion from possession improved - Liam accruing 1 – 2 from play, in well taken scores. This gave Kilmeena a platform to push Ballintubber all the way to the final whistle but the visitors defended resolutely and in the end Kilmeena just couldn’t find that extra bit of firepower to alter the scoreboard in their favour. The final score was: Kilmeena; 1 – 7, Ballintubber; 2 - 8 Next up: Breaffy away on Tuesday 1st May The panel present this evening comprised of the following: Cathal Cawley, Ben Lennon, Adam Sheridan, Tom Smythe, Sean Prenty, Ronan O’Donnell, Oisin Grimley, Chris McGlynn, Kian Moore, Mark Hastings, Jason McGlynn, Ian Murphy, Daniel O’Malley, Chris McNally, Jack Walsh, Cillian O’Grady, Liam Moore, Rory Nolan, Sean Sammon, Connor Sammon, Luke Garavan.

The first round of the Junior Championship started yesterday evening in St. Brendan's Park when Kilmeena and Tourmakeady lined out. The evening was a little wet and left the ground a little greasy but full credit to the ground staff the field was in great condition. The game was well contested but Kilmeena were creating the better scoring chances. Tourmakeady kept themselves in the game by scoring goals. Half time score Kilmeena 1 - 12 Tourmakeady 2 - 01. The second half played out pretty much as the first but Kilmeena turned the ball over too easily with poor pass execution. Also kick some poor wide shots. Again Tourmakeady scored goals to keep the game interesting. All in all it was a good performance and great to get off to a winning start. On a side note the management and team would like to wish David Stenson all the best in the future. He has been a great club man. Kilmeena Abu!
