The Kilmeena U16 Boys team travelled north last Thursday night (20th of July) for an evening fixture against Knockmore in the Homeland U16 C Shield semi-final. We elected to play with a slight breeze in the first half, and thanks to the relatively dry conditions, both sides showcased their ability and fitness to their highest levels. Knockmore looked to push on early, but scores throughout the half from Cormac O'Malley and a late point from Cormac Slattery saw our boys keep in touch and trail by just two points at the break. Half time score: Knockmore 0-7 Kilmeena 0-5 Throughout the third quarter of the game, Knockmore looked set to pull away and despite a Brendon Witzl goal, the home team led by as many as eight points midway through the second half. But our lads never gave up, and the lead was cut to two when a lob into the box found Kyle Mulchrone, who got a hand to the high ball to tip it over the onrushing goalkeeper and into the back of the net. However, Knockmore rallied once more down the field and bagged a goal and a few points of their own to push their lead back out. A late Adam Moran free kick found Brendon Witzl in the box, who slotted the ball past the keeper for his second goal of the day, but it proved to be no more than a consolation as the referee promptly blew the final whistle, leaving Knockmore to advance to the final next week in Claremorris, where they will take on Tourmakeady. Final score at Saint Joseph's Park: Knockmore 2-15 Kilmeena 3-08 We extend a big thank you to Ollie Mulchrone for taking pictures on the day.

Burrishoole 4-8 Kilmeena 2-8 Our U14s fell just short in their efforts to make the D Division Championship final on a fine evening away to our old rivals Burrishoole. After storming into a five-point lead after ten minutes, Burrishoole hit back with a couple of points and goals, leaving us four points down at half time. After the break, Burrishoole extended their lead by another couple of points but our boys dug in and reduced the deficit to just two points. Both teams missed chances but it was Burrishoole who emerged victorious, winning by six points in the end. Missing four players, it was nonetheless a spirited Kilmeena performance and despite their disappointment and exhaustion at the final whistle they should be proud of their efforts, not just for this game, but for the entire season. We wish Burrishoole the best of luck in their upcoming final against Swinford.

Kilmeena Junior ladies took on the Balla ladies in the last round of the Frank Kelly Memorial League on Friday 30th June. Balla were the table toppers and the only undefeated team left in the league. Balla started very strong cutting through the Kilmeena defence with their running game, showing exactly why the are undefeated. It took the Kilmeena ladies a while to settle into the game but they slowly started to get the better of Balla. Points from Shannon Bourke, Ciara Joyce, Lisa Hastings and Katie Hogan had the ladies ahead before a superb palmed in goal from captain Julia Sztejner had the ladies ahead by 1-08 to 0-02 at half time. However, but for a high wides tally by Balla and a few brilliant saves from Ellen O’Toole and a clearance off the line by Maureen Joyce, it could have been a very different story. Balla were stronger in the second half and managed to rattle the Kilmeena net, but once again a high wides tally proved to be very costly. Points from Shannon Bouke and 2 pointed frees from Ciara Joyce helped keep Kilmeena ahead. Our Polish exPat Aine Regan made a welcome return off the bench in the second half. A hard fought but well earned win for the Kilmeena ladies.

Kilmeena U14s bounced back from last week's disappointing display against Moy Davitts with a convincing win over Shrule Glencorrib in the second round of the Championship. Kilmeena led at half time by 14 points but a chaotic final 10 minutes saw Shrule Glencorrib work their way back into the game. Kilmeena had done enough though and eventually won by nine points. Scenes that we do not want to see repeated after the final whistle left a bad taste in the mouth but on the positive side, there was much to be encouraged about with good football played for most of the game and this result sets up a crucial home encounter against Kiltimagh next Monday.
