Under 13 Football blitz- La Trattoria Cup Report
Sat April14 Aghada
Midleton U 13 partook in a blitz organised by Aghada on Sat 14 of April.
We were drawn in a group with Kiltha Og and Sliabh Rua.
In our first game we played Kiltha Og which was a very entertaining game with the lead changing very often. Midleton won on a scoreline of 4goals and 7 points to 3-5.
Due to injuries and Feile we fielded a weaker team and I would like to congratulate all my players on their commitment especially the under 12 plyers who helped us out on the day.
Our next match was against Sliabh Rua who were very well organised and played a very quick brand of football. Their forwards were very much on top and they led by 4 – 6 to no score at half time. Our players tried very hard in the second half led by Andrew Nestor and Eoin Mitchell as well as Evan o Meara and Cathal Gunning .Good finishing by Cormac Higgins and Tom Scanlon meant we finished with a score of 2-4 to 6 - 8 .
We played for 3rd and 4th place against Blarney who turned out to be very strong and beat us comfortably on a scoreline of Mid 3-5 Blarney 6-7.Colin Edgeby did very well from the under 12 group and our man of the tournament was Andrew Nestor followed very closely by Eoin Mitchell and Cormac Higgins.
Many thanks to the Organisers on a wonderfull day which will stand to my players in the coming years.
