The minor footballers won the Jonathan Burke Memorial Cup in Monivea last Saturday when they defeated the home side by 4-8 to 0-7.  Despite the difference in the final score it was a well contested game until inside the last 10 minutes when we scored two goals, one each by Andrew Golding and Dara Melia.  Our total score was accounted for by Enda Mullarkey 0-3 Andrew Golding 1-1 Shane Concannon 2-1 Patrick Healy 0-3 Dara Melia 1-0.  One particular score, a point by Patrick Healy from a sideline ball way out on the left wing and at a narrow angle drew applause from the supporters of both teams.  Our defence was solid all through and gave little time or space for the Monivea forwards to pose a serious threat.  Cathal Creaven in goal dealt competently with everything that came his way and he had a solid fullback line in front of him in Conor Furey TJ. Forde and Paul Lynch .The halfback line of Gearoid Reynolds Brian Creaven Eoghan Kavanagh and midfielders Jonathan Creaven and Patrick Healy also performed impressively and launched a good number of attacks.  The half forward line of Shane Concannon Enda Mullarkey and Dara Melia all took their scores well.  The inside line was led by Andrew Golding at full forward who was well supported by Gavin Curry and David Keane, and later Owen Pearse all of whom won ball under pressure at vital stages laying off good passes which led to important scores.  After the game, team captain on the day Enda Mullarkey in his acceptance speech thanked the Monivea Club for the invitation to take part in the competition and were also thanked for the food and refreshments provided for all after the game.
