P.J. Marray Memorial Blitz:
On Saturday 1st October a sun drenched O’Neill Park welcomed over 50 boys and girls for the 2016 P.J. Marray Memorial Blitz.
The players were divided into four teams who played off round robin style to determine the cup and shield finalists.
The Shield final between Mayo and Dublin was end to end for the first half, with both teams exhibiting some superb skills, before the Mayo team led by captain Ben Treanor pulled away to win the P.J. Marray shield.
The cup final between Monaghan and All Stars proved to be a thrilling shootout with both teams throwing caution to the wind in an all out attacking match.
Monaghan led by 1 point at the interval but All Stars led by captain Harry Doherty finished strongly to win by the narrowest of margins and secure the P.J. Marray Cup.
After refreshments were served, Conor Marray representing The Marray Family presented winning captains Harry Doherty and Ben Treanor with the cup and shield.
Conor also presented Player of the Tournament trophies to Mollie Doherty and Jack Treanor.
We would like to thank everyone who helped with the organisation and running of this wonderful day and especially our fantastic juveniles for providing such a feast of football and fun.
