Maynooth GAA

Having lost to Celbridge last weekend, the Féile B squad got back to winning ways on Sunday (7 March) with a well deserved victory over Kilcullen. After the disappointment of last weekend this was a fine team performance from all 19 players used on the day.

ROUND Towers scored two first half goals to put them in the driving seat of a very closely contested third round Aldridge Cup game in Kildare town on Saturday afternoon (6 March).

Aldridge Cup Round 3

Round Towers     2-7
Maynooth            0-11

After a very unfortunate loss to Round Towers in our first outing (a litany of missed chances proving our downfall) Maynooth under 14s beat a strong Naas team who had already beaten Celbridge. This was a fine display with every player giving their best for the cause. Tiredness in last 10 minutes nearly proved costly, but Maynooth were deserved winners afer a wonderful display of skill. This sets us up for a winners takes all clash in a local derby against Celbridge next Sunday. Best of luck!

On a side note, congrats to the rugby lads from the squad who won Leinster medals the day before.

GAA president Christy Cooney will visit Maynooth on Tuesday evening (9 March) to launch the Kildare club’s strategic plan.
