Excellent weekend for all teams

Schoolboys Under Twelve Division Three
Tombrack United 0 Shelburne FC 1
The improvement by our Under Twelve boys team was shown in this game against league leaders Shelburne in Ballyboy last Thursday when our lads only lost 1-0 and dominated long periods of the second half. Shelburne are a well organised team but they found our lads well capable of matching them in all areas around the pitch and were very relieved to leave Tombrack with all three points. This particular team has fantastic potential and will do well at all age groups as they get older and hopefully will have the bit of luck needed to clinch an underage league title

Schoolgirls Under Eighteen Sevens
Tombrack United 1 St Leonards 0
Our Under Eighteen girls produced a well disciplined performance on Saturday morning to overcome a St Leonards side just needing a point to win the league. Our girls needed a win to force themselves into a play off and thats just what they did after working hard against the wind in the first half, they pushed forward in the second half and were rewarded when Amie Dreelan, who was making her debut at this age level, scored to give our girls a very important three points and they now go into a three way play off with St Leonards and Bree United for the title

Schoolgirls Under Fourteen Division Two B
Tombrack United 5 Corach Ramblers 0
The Under Fourteen girls are sitting safely mid table after this comfortable 5-0 win at home to a young Corach Ramblers side. Nadine Fortune and Shauna McGovern scored two goals each with Abbie Walsh also finding the net

Mens Division One
St Josephs 4 Tombrack United 5
The men's first team made history on Sunday morning when they overcame St Josephs by the odd goal in nine and have now earned an opportunity to play off for a place in the Premier Division. St Josephs are in a battle against relegation and needed something from this game and went for it, right from the start and led three times in the game before Tombrack overturned them to take the vital three points. James Coleman scored twice, one of them being the winner with Joe Newe, Kevin Coleman and Bob Newe also scoring in this historic victory

Womens Division Three Cup Final
Tombrack United 5 Stoney LFC 2
Our Women's team completed the league and cup double when they overcame a dogged Stoney side in a very wet Bunclody on Sunday morning. Stoney started well and Ashling Kavanagh was called on early in the game to pull off a vital save when denying Chloe Foxe in a one on one situation. Despite playing into a heavy wind, Tombrack became more dominant as the game wore on and after twenty minutes, Shannon McGovern found space on the edge of the box to curl the ball into the net. Ten minutes later, Mary Boland broke down the right wing and her swerving ball deceived the Stoney keeper and landed in the net for 2-0. Stoney played with a bit more purpose after this second goal and pulled one back when Chloe Foxe went down in the area and stood up to slot home the resultant penalty. The early part of the second half saw Tombrack more dominant and on sixty minutes, Sharon Walsh worked very hard to find space and slot the ball under the keeper into the net. With twelve minutes remaining, Breda Cushen scored the goal of the match when striking an unstoppable shot to the roof of the net from thirty yeards out. Stoney did pull another one back with seven minutes to go when Chloe Foxe curled a free kick in off the post but it was Tombrack who had the final say when Mary Boland battled through a crowded penalty area to slot past the keeper for a 5-2 victory. Shannon McGovern collected the player of the match award and we will leave the report on the team's celebrations for another day !!!
Thanks to everyone who turned out to support the team in terrible weather and to everyone who has supported the team throughout what has been a very successful season
