J2FC Semi-Final
Caulry 0-12
Ballinagore 3-8
Our juniors bowed out of this year’s J2FC at the semi-final stages when they came up short against Ballinagore’s first team on Saturday afternoon last.
Caulry burst out of the tracks with Thomas Dunning opening the scoring account after 24 seconds. Our lads defended well in the opening stages of the game, keeping Ballinagore at bay until the 5th minute when their no. 12 finished with a point. The men in maroon and white then added another to take the lead. Luke Buckley had a chance to score on the 8th minute but missed. However, he done right at the second time of asking when he fired over a point on the 12th after a very patient build-up. Blink and you would have missed it though as the Bal boys worked the ball from a short kickout, straight down the field and into the back of the Caulry net within seconds of Buckley’s preceding point. The opposition then followed this up with point (although at one stage, there was a goal on) to give themselves a four-point cushion. Will Buckley drew one of these back at the end of the first quarter. However, in similar fashion to their first goal, Ballinagore fired home another three-pointer on the 16th minute giving Caulry a six-point deficit to chase. To credit our lads, we began to dominate the latter stages of the half, outscoring Ballinagore 0-4 to 0-1 between the 19th and 28th minutes; Malynn fired over three of these (one ‘45’ and two frees) while Adam Donoghue accounted for the only score from play after a ball in from Oisín Shortal. However, our lads let their guard slip in the last few minutes of the half and, rather than going in at the break just to three points behind, it was double that after Ballinagore registered their hattrick, leaving the scoreboard reading 3-4 to 0-7 at the break.
Ballinagore were first off the mark in the second half momentarily stretching their lead to seven. Buckley brought the deficit back to five with his efforts (one from play and one from a mark). Further scores from Liam Malynn and Alan Daly gave Caulry a fighting chance as the Ballinagore men seemed to die out of this third quarter. The sides then traded points with Thomas Dunning’s effort bouncing over the bar on the 45th minute. Ballinagore kicked the next two scores of the game to stretch their lead to five by the 52nd minute. This transpired to be the final score of the game as the opposition had done enough to secure their place in the final. Hard luck to our lads and their management team.

Ladies Intermediate Championship Semi-Final
Caulry 4-7
Loughnavalley 5-12
Our ladies' intermediate championship campaign came to an end in the semi-final stages when they were defeated by Loughnavalley in Rosemount on Saturday afternoon last. 
Caulry were first off the mark with Leah Hallissy firing over an early point. However, it wasn't long before Loughnavalley found their feet, and they done so in style with a goal on the 4th minute. Megan Clinton was unlucky then as she fired just wide of the target of what would have been a fantastic goal. Rather, it was the opposition who were next to score; this coming on the 7th minute from a free. The opening half was an entertaining spectacle from a supporters' point of view as the scoreline was soon overturned back in Caulry's favour after Ava Hallissy fired home a goal (a brilliant catch from Ashling Gaynor at midfield setting up this play) before Aine Gaynor split the posts. However, the girls in yellow and green always seemed to have the slight upper hand on Caulry as a quick fire 1-2 had them back in front by the end of the opening quarter. It was like a game of tennis as the ball raced from one end of the field to the other as it was all-square once again by the 21st minute after a goal from Gaynor and point courtesy of Molly Connaughton. Loughnavalley broke Caulry's stride momentarily with a point then. However, now with our tails up, the Caulry girls worked hard and set Leah Hallisy up for a goal on the 25th minute. Despite this, Loughnavalley were still chomping at the bit and after a quick fire duo of goals within seconds of one another, the girls in yellow and green lead by four at the break. 
Loughnavalley started the second half with intent, racing up the field from the throw-in and registering their fifth and final goal of the game. The sides then shared a tally of 1-5, with Aine Gaynor adding a point and goal either side of the opposition's tally of 0-4. Although evenly matched in many respects, Loughnavalley's accuracy up front proved to be the difference between the two sides as they added a duo of points to further stretch their lead. Leah Hallisy drew one of these back on the 49th minute. The sides shared 0-4 in the later stages of the game, but ultimately, Loughnavalley had done enough to book their place in the county final. 
Team & Scorers: Aisling Claffey, Ella Corcoran, Amy Murphy, Anna Malone, Susan Duignan, Ruth Martin, Eunice David, Jasmine Maloney, Ashling Gaynor, Molly Connaughton (0-1), Rachel Maguire, Megan Clinton (0-1), Ava Hallisy (1-2, 2f), Leah Hallisy (1-2), Aine Gaynor (2-1)
Subs: Kate Stuart Trainor for Rachel Maguire, Ciara Nally for Susan Duignan, Sophie Padden for Ashling Gaynor, Lauren White for Aine Gaynor
