16 Football C'Ship Division 2
Askeaton/Ballysteen 0-02 Kilulta Gaels 2-09.

Killulta under 16 footballers were back in action on Saturday after the
5 week exam break. Their opponents were neighbours Askeation/Ballysteen
with the match played on a bright but blustery afternoon in Askeaton.
Killulta started very strongly and scored a goal and three points within
the opening four minutes. Paudie Walsh operating at full forward scoring
1:2 and Tony McCarthy with a point. Our opponents at this point resorted
to a blanket defence and this coupled with some poor shooting meant we
did not score again until the 21st minute when Jack O'Keeffe pointed in
reply to Askeation/Ballysteens first point of the game in the 20th minute.
A converted 45 from BarryO'Connell and a point from Darragh Walsh in
the last couple of minutes of this half gave us a half time lead of 8
points, 1:6 to 0:1.

Darragh Walsh opened the scoring for us in the first minute of the
second half but playing against a stiff breeze we found scores hard to
come by for the rest of this half. Two points for substitute Martin
Nunan and a goal from Tony McCarthy were our lot to leave the final
score 2:9 to 0:2 in our favour.
All 20 players used made a significant contribution to thiswin which
leaves the battle for a place on the starting 15 wide open.
