Another impressive win for the Ladies

The Ladies footballers contrinued on their winning way with another comprehensive win away to Clann Mhuire, The Naul, on Wednesday night, winning on a scoreline of 6-12 to 2-6. The mixture of youth and experience worked well again. Anne Clarke put in a player of the match performance, constantly making herself available for passes and taking up intelligent defensive positions when the opposition had the ball.

Mixed weekend for footballers

Surely one of our poorer displays over the last few years, a weakened senior team was well beaten by an equally weakened Ballymun at Broomfield. We stayed in the game against the wind in the first half but about four wides when scores were on plus a soft goal given away left us five adrift. Ross was black carded (I've no idea why) and that upset us. A few good points by Eoin Fanning, senior league outings for David Sexton, Ronan Palmer, Mark Hazely and Mark Finnerty were probably our highlights.

Minor Hurlers up and running at last

Clan na Mara 1-13 Clontarf 1-11. Our amalgamated Minor hurling team (Syls\Scoil) collected its first league points ( Div2) on Sunday morning against a very capable Clontarf team managed by Noel Wardick (son of Syls stalwart Jim Wardick !) It was a battling performance based on a sturdy defence with Thomas, Sean Foley & Phelim excelling but ably supported by Darragh McGrath, Sean Doolin and Andrew. Danny Colclough returned to goal keeping duties from injury and made several crucial saves

Ladies impressive in League win

Our Senior Ladies footballers gave an exhibition of open intelligent football against an admittedly poor Ballinteer St. John's team in their first League outing at Broomfield on Wednesday night, winning on a scoreline of 9-20 to 0-3. Our intercounty stars were in action in this game and gave exhibitions of how the game should be played, Sinead Aherne and Nicole Owens cleaning up in the full forward line and Niamh McEvoy giving a powerhouse exhibition in midfield.

Football Championship 1st round

U10 Hurlers play Skerries in Bridgefield

The U10 hurlers played Skerries in their second home match of the season last Saturday in Bridgefield. In the first match Syls battled hard with Darragh Boyne and Ryan O'Farrell to the fore. Barry Corcoran made some great saves while Darragh Murtagh scored a great goal for Syls while Willie Hackett was unlucky not to score only for his goal to be disallowed. There were other good performances from Cormac Nolan, Andrew McCullagh and Ollie MacLochlainn.

Big thanks from U12s for great Quiz night

Ladies win against Clontarf

Our Senior Ladies footballers got off to a good start with a Cup win over Clontarf in their first match of the season on a score line of 0-9 to 1-4. With a mixture of experience, recent graduates from Minor ranks and a sprinkling of under age players, this team played an attractive brand of football tutored by new manager Dave McEvoy who took over only last week. There were impressive performances from some of the older players like Jackie Costello playing in goal, unbelievably for the first time,
