u14's tournament

A unique tournament was held in St John’s Park on Saturday last. Its aim was simple – to develop up and coming U14 players from across the county, by providing them with as much game time as possible – in a competitive tournament environment. The tourney was the brainchild of OLG stalwart - John Sheridan. This reporter managed to catch up with John, while he was grabbing a quick cuppa in the splendid new clubhouse kitchen. John explained that the club was hosting a twelve club tournament over two successive Saturdays. He was quick to point out also that he had been given great help from the organizing committee – Niall Bergin, Eoghan Croghan, Ben Fogarty, Brendan O’Leary, and Donal Higgins. Twelve clubs from both city and county have entered the tourney. John explained that what was unique about this competition was that the teams would be made up of players who ply their trades in Roinns B & C. The twelve clubs are as follows: St Martin’s (Muckalee), James Stephens, Emeralds (Urlingford), Kilmacow, Rower-Inistioge, Conahy Shamrocks, Windgap, Dicksboro, Tullogher-Rosbercon, Barrow Rangers (Paulstown), Carrickshock and of course....O’Loughlin Gaels. This reporter attended several of Saturday’s games – the pick of them being a tight tussle between the Continent and Windgap. All the skills were on display in this enthralling encounter - tight defending, hard tackling, long range points and spectacular goals. Each of the twelve teams played two group games last Saturday. The beauty of this tournament is that they will each contest a further two games (semi-final & final) next Saturday, regardless of their group standings from the previous week. O’Loughlin Gaels would like to sincerely thank all those involved in putting this tournament together and would also like to wish each of team the very best on Saturday July 12th in St John’s Park.
