Final score St Vincents 1-12 to 0-5 Naomh Mearnog.
Game 2:
The Vins lads began the first half with the aid of a strong breeze behind them. After a shaky start that saw the vins boys kicking 6 wides, they settled down and with fine points from Cian Stanley, Bill Costello (2) and 2-1 from Centre Back Daniel Peel, we took a 2-4 to 0-0 lead at half time. There was some great defending by full back Andrew Smyth and a great save from our 5 year old guest player Bobby Peel to keep the opposition scoreless.
The 2nd half would see the boys playing very intelligent football against the wind. High workrate and great team play from all the boys resulted in points for Rory Dunne, Oisin Fitzpatrick (3), Oisin Mulcahy 1-1 Bill Costello (1) and Daniel Peel chipping over 3 points. There was great defending by all the boys which restricted Naomh Mearnog to only 1 point.

Game 3:
