Emyvale GAA Club Notes for Thursday 17th October:
Ulster Club Junior Football Championship: Following our Championship success we have now earned on spot in the Ulster Club Quarter Final on the Sunday the 3rd November against Ardmore (Doíre) in Clones. Time TBC.
Universal Graphics Junior Football Championship Final Replay: Final Score Emyvale 4-09 Blackhill 1-09
We made no mistake at the second time of asking to clinch the junior football championship title and thereby promotion to intermediate ranks for next season. We got off to a flying start with two goals by Daniel McMahon in the opening three minutes and they added a third in the 25th minute through David McAllister to leave Blackhill with an uphill task at half-time. Half time Score 3-03 to 0-04.
Blackhill to their credit came out and enjoyed their best period in the game reducing the margin to three points by the 10th minute of the second-half with an unanswered 1-04. However that was as close as it got for Blackhill as the lads showed great determination in the final third to finish out deserved winners. Congratulations to all involved.
