Juveniles: Last Saturday afternoon in Blackhill saw the completion of juvenile teams representing Ballybay for the 2015 season, with the exception of the GoGames for U8 & U10 members. The club suffered mixed emotions on the day with the U14 team holding their nerve in a tense affair to claim a two point victory over Donaghmoyne in the Gerry’s Prepared Veg Division 3 Shield Final. Unfortunately the St Pats U16’s were unable to make it a memorable double on the day as they fell to a strong Inniskeen team in the Gerry’s Prepared Veg Division Shield final. The club would like to congratulate all involved in the achievement in getting to this stage of the competitions.

A special mention of thanks to all mentors that helped the juvenile teams in any way throughout the 2015 season, the supports who acted as the teams extra man from the terraces, to Brendan and the field committee for having the facilities at the ready at all times and finally and most importantly the players who represented the club week in week out. It was great to see so many numbers involved, developing the skills of the game and more importantly having fun each week. Each member has done the club proud. The senior and juvenile committees would like to take this opportunity to thank all for their efforts and we’ll continue to work together to make the 2016 season even better.
