Midleton GAA () vs Douglas ()
Midleton CBS, 10:30AM
Fe 11 Football v Douglas Report Sat 16th March
After getting our league campaign off to a great start last week we were brought back down to earth with a bang against a very well drilled Douglas outfit. Again as is always the case we had a fantastic turnout of thirty six players so we had three teams of eleven with one rotating sub on each side. The games were played in the splendid Midleton CBS complex which is ideal for underage games. Again the lads gave it their all but to be honest Douglas were far better at the basics of football which they showed time and again running off the ball and always finding their man with the simple pass using the old saying let the ball do the work again this is down to coaching and truth to tell our lads haven’t seen a lot of the big ball. Again we had some great performances and but for a small bit of composure in front of goals all three games would have been a lot closer. At the end of the day it was Douglas who ran out comfortable winners in all three games on scorelines of Douglas 4-5 Mid 0-8, Doug 5-6 Mid 1-3, Doug 5-5 Mid 2-4.
Parents please ensure that your son has a Gum shield as we do not want to
Disappoint any lad by telling him he can’t play.
