Under Eleven Schoolboys
Tombrack United v Ballymurn Celtic
Our Under Eleven boys produced one of their best performances of the season as they battled strongly against a hard working Ballymurn side. Both teams played slick passing football despite difficult conditions underfoot and both sets of management were delighted with their players performances.
Under Twelve Schoolgirls Division Two B
Rosslare Strand 5 Tombrack United 5
These two sides have produced nineteen goals in the two games they played against each other and this 5-5 draw in Rosslare produced some excellent football. Our girls were chasing the game all the way through, trailing 1-0, 2-1 and eventually 5- 3 before a late comeback earned our girls a point. Ana Dragusan scored four with Marita McCrea scoring her first ever goal for the club
Under Thirteen Schoolboys Division Three
Gorey Celtic B 5 Tombrack United 1
Conor Salt was on target for our Under Thirteen boys as they played out their final game of the season against league leaders Gorey Celtic who are only one point from the title after this win. Our lads put in a strong performance and only trailed 2-1 at the break and were well in contention throughout the second half but the home side were just that bit sharper in front of goal. Well done to Bob and David on a great season
Under Sixteen Schoolgirls Premier One
Cloughbawn AFC 2 Tombrack United 4
Our Under Sixteen girls are within touching distance of the Premier title after they came away from rivals Cloughbawn 4-2 winners and worst case scenario is we need four points from their last two games to clinch the title. Cloughbawn took the lead in this game before Nicola Ryan headed home a corner to bring the sides level just before half time and goals from Shannon McGovern and Becky Connnaughton had our girls 3-1 up. The home side did pull one back before Becky scored her second to wrap up a vital three points
Youths Division Four
Tombrack United 1 Camolin Celtic 1
Played in front of a large crowd, this potential league decider produced some excellent football with both sides giving 100%, with our lads needing to win to force a play off while Camolin just needed a point to wrap up the title. Kevin Kenny gave Tombrack the ideal start when he scored a free kick on seven minutes to take a well deserved lead and Camolin had their goalkeeper to thank for keeping it at 1-0 as he made two excellent saves from John Kavanagh and Kevin Kenny. However, with eight minutes to go to half time, Camolin forced a corner and Tombrack failed to clear and the visitors slotted the ball into the net. The second half was very evenly matched with Tombrack looking for the elusive winner while Camolin were in search of the goal that would clinch the title. Time ran out in the end and the visitors secured the point they needed to be crowned divisional champions while Tombrack finished runners up after been unbeaten all season. The players gave everything in this match with all putting in one hundred per cent and Jack Kehoe in particular producing aman of the match performance
Well done to Willie, Bridget and the players as well as everyone involved in a very historic season as these are the first medals collected by the club at Youth level
Men's Division One
Bridge Rovers 4 Tombrack United 0
Our men's team got the worst possible start in this match against one of the top teams in the division when they found themselves 3-0 down and a man down twenty minutes into the game. Bridge started strongly and had our defence under pressure from the start and were rewarded with three early goals and then Eoin Carton was sent off after an altercation with the referee and there was no way back after that. The lads showed great character for the remaining seventy minutes and conceded only one goal in the second half but will now need to prepare for next week's, which will most likely be one of the cup games
Gwyn Jones Cup Second Round
Wexford Albion B 2 Tombrack United 1
Our second team travelled to Wexford Albion with just eleven players for this Gwyn Jones Cup tie and put up a strong performance before bowing out 2-1. Eoghan Murphy was on target for the lads but found the Albion side just that bit sharper on the day
