Glenville Notes (21st Apr)
- Apr 21,2025
Feile 2025
Glenville faced off against Midleton and Bride Rovers on a damp Rostellan on Saturday morning last. Midleton were up first and after a great effort from our team, we came up short on the final score line. Final score was Midleton 2.03 Glenville 1.01
Our 2nd game was against Bride Rovers. After a slow first half we trailed at halftime 1.04 to 0.01. A big improvement in the 2nd half brought the game to a one score game towards the end, but time ran out and we lost out 1.05 to 0.05.
Well done to Midleton who went on to qualify from the groups.
A great morning's football was had and all 21 players got game time. Thanks to the players, management, and the parents for their continued efforts.
Also, the lads got new gear and a special thanks to the people who contributed towards this.
U15 Football League
Glenville 3.09
Midleton 4.07
We were treated to a cracker of a game in Midleton's new astro on Tuesday evening last.
On a lovely evening for football, we started off well and after a productive first half, we trailed by a single point at halftime, after an outstanding battle between two sides who have come across each other a number of times over the last 2 yrs.
The second half was very similar and right to the end, the game was in the balance.
An excellent team performance from our lads ,finally losing out by a single point at the death.
Well done to the 21 players who contributed handsomely to this game.
