U17 Championship
Caulry
0-5
Tubberclair 5-12
Our U17s suffered a heavy defeat at the hands of Tubberclair in the park on Monday evening last.
Caulry got off to a positive start with Aaron Murphy and Dean Burns adding early points. However, this was as good as it got as Tubberclair began to take charge of proceedings. Two quick fire goals launched the visitors into the lead. Some wayward passing from the Caulry end enabled Tubberclair to add four unanswered points. Caulry had chances towards the end of the half but couldn’t take advantage of these as the opposition lead 4-5 to 0-2 at the break.
The second half followed in the same vein with our lads accounting for the first two points. These scores from the boots of Rory Hatton and Murphy. Cormac Murphy tried hard throughout as he sent a dangerous ball in across the square, but much to our dismay nothing came of this chance. The opposition drew two back by the 41st minute. Kyle Rainey then put his name on the scoreboard when he pulled on a loose ball, and this transpired to be our last score of the match. Ultimately, Tubberclair were the stronger side and ran out easy winners.
Team & Scorers: John Paul, Michael McSharry, Kyle Byrne, Darragh Shortall, Brian Doyle, Cormac Murphy, Cody Parker, Aaron Murphy (0-2, 2f), David Gaynor, Kyle Rainey (0-1), Lee Corcoran, Dean Burns (0-1), Simon O’Grady, Dean Martin, Rory Hatton (0-1)

U15 Championship
Caulry
4-9
Garrycastle 4-11
Our U15s served up an exciting battle against Garrycastle in the park on Wednesday evening last.
Garrycastle opened the scoring account with a point from play before Darragh Martin levelled proceedings after some good fielding from John McDermott. Martin then added another to edge Caulry in front. A quick-fire four points saw the scoreline overturned in Garrycastle’s favour. John Paul impressed throughout the game as he made a beeline up from his own goals and finished with a point on the 16th minute. The visitors added another duo of scores, however, McDermott fired home a goal on the 25th minute to bring Caulry right back into contention. With our tails up, Martin added a free before McDermott struck for his second goal to see our boys lead 2-4 to 0-7 at the break.
Our boys got off to an ideal start in the second half with Kevin O’Brien adding a goal and Ciaran Dunning added a point before the 35th minute. Garrycastle reduced the margins when they got their first goal of the match moments later. Euan Kelly’s and O’Brien’s points were cancelled out at the other end of the field as the opposition kept chomping at Caulry’s heels. Our boys then let their guard slip slightly and 1-2 later saw the game level pegging heading into the final quarter. Another free from Martin kept the scoreboard ticking over. John Paul then brought off a great save on the 53rd minute as the ball was worked up the field and into the back of the net by Darragh Belton. Martin then added another free and at this point, you would have thought Caulry were home and hosed. However, Garrycastle showed great composure as they battled to the bitter end, adding 2-1 to take the win on the evening.
Team: John Paul, Tom Madden, Gavin Quilty, Caelan O’Neill, Luke Berry, Fionn Murphy, Tristan Dolan, Rhys Mason, John McDermott, Matthew Allen, Darragh Martin, Ciaran Dunning, Marcus Grant, Euan Kelly, Kevin O’Brien

SFC Round 3
Caulry
0-11
Killucan 0-8
Our seniors picked up their second consecutive win of this year’s SFC when they play Killucan on a wet and miserable Saturday evening last.
Killucan won the throw-in but were unable to convert the ensuing chance as they registered their first wide of the game inside the opening 30 seconds. Senan Baker then opened the scoring account when he tapped over a free after a foul on Tiarnán O’Donovan. Killucan soon found their shooting boots as they kicked the next two scores of the game, one from a mark and one from a free. The margins were always going to be small in the sloppy conditions as the sides kept on one another’s toes with the one-point lead being overturned in our favour, courtesy of scores from Sean Murphy and Baker. A Killucan free drew level on the 15th minute. Paddy Sleator momentarily put Caulry back in the lead when his shot hit the crossbar and went over. But, in customary fashion, this scoreline was once again flipped as the opposition accounted for the next two points from play. The Caulry defence worked very hard throughout the game as interventions from Kevin Maguire and Tadgh Baker set Conor McCormack and Sleator up for points. The yellow bellies then added two points in as many minutes to lead marginally at the break on a scoreline of 0-7 to 0-6.
Similar to the first half, it was Baker who accounted for the opening score from a free. Both sides then missed some scoring chances before Killucan kicked what transpired to be their only score of the half on the 40th minute. Despite this, the game always seemed very tight as Baker sent over the equaliser from free on the 42nd minute. Both teams missed a smattering of scoring chances in the following minutes, which probably could be accredited to the poor conditions. Thankfully from a Caulry point of view, our lads were slightly more accurate up front as a fine point from McCormack put our noses ahead on the 51st minute. Killucan tagged on another wide moments later before chances from O’Donovan and Colin Murphy up our end of the field were missed. Killucan wides sandwiched our next score of the game. This coming from the boot of Baker after a fine catch from Stephen Connolly at midfield. McCormack then added the ultimate score of the game from a long-range free as Caulry welcomed the fulltime whistle and pick up their second brace of points.
Team & Scorers: Jack Connaughton, Eoin Shortall, Kevin Maguire, Dylan Lowry, Tadgh Baker, Damien Dolan, Sean Fox, Stephen Connolly, Sean Doyle, Ben Moran, Paddy Sleator (0-1), Sean Murphy (0-2), Tiarnán O’Donovan, Senan Baker (0-5, 4f), Aaron Roarke
Subs: Conor McCormack (0-3, 1f) for Aaron Roarke, Colin Murphy for Sean Doyle, Harry Stuart Trainor for Damien Dolan
