The Rivalry Continues
We knew it wouldn’t be as easy against Scoil Ailbhe as it was in our first game against Gaeil Scoil.
We got the first score of the match and worked from there. We were soon composed and seemed to be dominating. By half time we were leading 1-5 to 1 point. We made one change at half time which saw Sean Stone come on for Shane Monaghan in corner forward.
To start the second half Scoil Ailbhe scored a goal, which gave us a fright as we were only up by 4 points. But we didn’t let it get to our heads and came straight back with a goal from Jamie Ormond. All round we were playing as a better team than the last game. Some people that played well in my eyes were , Dylan Quinlan [who helped the defense while also scoring 2 points] and Jamie Ormond [ he scored a brilliant goal and helped the attack to flow while also scoring 3-4].
Personally I think Cormac Bourke ,who swept up in full back played an absolute stormer, and saved us on many occasions. In the end we won 5-9 to 1-1 . It was a great win and gives us great confidence moving forward in this football season.

On the 15th of October St.Colmcille’s played Scoil Ailbhe in the Templmore park pitch. The boys got off to a great start to the match even though scoil Ailbhe were on the ball a lot in the first 15 to 20 minutes.
When the boys started scoring and started taking the game away with scores. At half time the subs started kicking around.
In the second half Sean Stone got two outstanding goals when the match was over everyone shook hands. In the end it was St.Colmcille`s 5-9 Scoil Ailbhe 1-1.
I thought that Jamie Ormond was the man of the match scoring 3-4. I think we made Mr. Healy proud as it is his last match against Scoil Ailbhe with St.Colmcille`s.
