Fossa
Seniors: A
severely depleted Fossa senior team went under to Kilgarvan in
the County Novice Shield semi-final at Fossa on Sunday last,
when a Kilgarvan goal clinically executed in the final minute
of extra time gave victory to the Roughty men by 2-10 to 0-13.
It was the second weekend in a row that extra time was required
at Fossa. The home side opened rather shakily, and for 45
minutes there seemed to be no concerted plan of attack. They
overdid the hand passing, and fumbled quite a lot. With 15
minutes to go the score stood at Kilgarvan 1-06 Fossa 0-04. For
the final quarter Fossa woke up to their best bout of football
of the hour adding 5 points without reply. This coincided with
the introduction of Micheal O’Neill who gave an example of how
to send good ball into the scoring zone. The extra time remained
at stalemate, and it looked like a trip to Kilgarvan was in the
offing when the visitors got that late strike.
Coiste na Óg: Our U10
team took part in a well-organised and very entertaining blitz
in Rathmore last Sunday. We played Spa, Glenflesk and Rathmore
White and came 2nd in this group. These were tough games where
every pass had to be right and every score had to be taken.
Their football skills and team spirit came to the fore resulting
in us winning 2 out of the 3 games this put us in the final
against Gneeveguilla. This game was never going to be easy, but
with passion in their hearts and the Fossa jersey on their
backs, our boys put in a fantastic display and came out on top.
This was a fantastic result for our boys which with it brings
confidence and belief and no doubt we'll see a lot more finals
with this team in the future. Well done to all players,
mentors, selectors and supporters! Thanks to Rathmore for the
very welcome hot cup of tea and sandwiches and the team goodie
bags.
Fossa Under 10 girls
took part in a excellently organised football blitz in Spa last
Sunday. They played great football on the day and had 3 great
games against Spa, Legion and Crokes and came out in top in all
three games. The future for girls football in the parish looks
very bright with a panel of 22 players taking part.
Panel: Shelly Clifford,
Ava Burke, Anna Clifford, Orla Moynihan, Aoife Doody, Sarah O
Neill, Ciara Griffin, Laura Whelton, Eve Weldon, Sara Sheehan,
Jodie Sheehan, Sadie Myers, Soirse Bennett, Maud Kelly, Aoife
Kissane, Laura O Sullivan, Meabh Bellow, Scarlett O Reilly,
Danielle O Brien, Eimear Talbot, Fiona Dineen and Meabh Bennett.
The girls Under 12 and
Under 16 teams played Cromane on Sunday also, and again there
was a great turnout and 2 excellent games. With a full squad
available our under 12 girls proved too be too strong but the
under 16 games was a hugely entertaining game, here two evenly
balance team played end to end stuff, finishing in a draw, with
a score line of Fossa 4 – 11 to Cromane 6 -05. Thanks to Cromane
for calling over and we will see them back there in a few weeks
time.
Again the future looks
bright and Fossa will be entering teams in Under 12, 14 and 16
in all competitions in 2012.
