Division 4 ACFL
Caulry 1-10
St. Loman’s 1-12
Our juniors came up short again St. Loman’s when they made the journey to Lakepoint Park on Tuesday evening last for their latest Division 4 ACFL fixture.
Our lads started the game well with a trio of unanswered points; Alan Malynn opened the scoring account inside forty seconds before his brother Liam added Caulry’s second point of the game. Thomas Dunning then put his name on the scoresheet. St. Loman’s, having already racked up three wides, put to right some of their wrongs on the 7th minute when they hit the back of the Caulry net to level the game. Our lads responded in style, however, as Dunning added his second point before combining with Colin Murphy and pocketing himself a goal on the 13th minute. A trio of points from Alan Malynn gave our lads a six-point cushion by the 21st minute. The Mullingar men kicked their first point of the game then, and this seemed to get them back into the game as a quick-fire blast of points saw the homeside trail by just one at the interval.
It was all-square in the early stages of the second half after a converted-free for the men in blue and white. Murphy momentarily nosed our lads in front then with his effort from play. But St. Loman’s followed suit with a similar score at the other end of the field to level the game once again. This tit-for-tat pattern continued right throughout the second half with either side only ever getting one-point the better of the other. St. Loman’s managed to stretch this lead to two in the very late stages of the half to escape with the win with two points to spare.

Division 2 ACFL
Caulry 3-15
St. Malachy’s 1-12
Our seniors secured themselves Division 1 ACFL status for next year when they overcame St. Malachy’s in their last round robin game of this year’s campaign on Friday evening last in Castletown/Geoghegan.
The teams were evenly matched in the opening five minutes of the game as they shared four points; Conor McCormack’s opening score after 25 seconds was subsequently cancelled out at the other end of the field before Emmet Nally’s point on the 4th minute was levelled by St. Malachy’s. The homeside then momentarily went in front with a converted-free on the 7th minute. However, our lads were soon back in the lead after a long ball in from McCormack landed into the back of the Castletown net, much to the surprise of the spectators and even the kicker himself. Converted-frees from both sides kept the scoreboard ticking over. St. Malachy’s were wasteful up front as their tally of wides steadily increased. Alan Malynn put three points between the sides on the quarter-hour mark, and three minutes later, this lead was doubled when Nally helped the ball into the back of the St. Malachy’s net after combining nicely with Thomas Dunning. Olan Healy was instrumental out field as he set McCormack and Malynn up for the next two points of the game. St. Malachy’s tapped over frees either side of a point from Nally to leave the scoreboard reading 2-8 t 0-6 at the break.
Our lads made an early burst out of the tracks in the second half which yielded an unanswered 1-2; a converted-penalty from Nally was sandwiched between points from Malynn and Nally to widen the gap to thirteen. St. Malachy’s best period of football came between the 37th and 44th minutes; two quick-fire points gave them a head-start before their full forward riffled the back of the Caulry net. Another converted-free from their no. 9 then reduced the gap to seven. However, this was as good as it got for the men in black and red as trio of scores, two Malynn frees and a point courtesy of McCormack, got Caulry back motoring. The teams shared a further four points in the remaining minutes of the half but ultimately, our lads ran out comfortable winners. This victory sees our lads secure promotion to the premier division for next year and secures them a place in this year’s league final which is set to be played on the last weekend in June. Well done to the lads and their management team of Pat Flanagan, Kevin Connaughton and Joe Quinn.
