15th April Junior Football Championship Aghada 2-6 Cloyne 0-8
A fine evening a lovely field and a big crowd who else but Aghada and Cloyne and what a game it turned out to be. It had it all. Aghada got a dream start when after seven minutes the Cloyne Goalkeeper dropped a harmless ball from Mark Lewis and Christy O’Shea was on hand to boot it to the net. Cloyne replied with a point from Mike Naughton. Cloyne now applied pressure and it paid off when Ger Sweeney the ref gave a Penalty to Cloyne, which to Aghada’s Delight went wide. Back came Aghada with a brilliant point from Michael Lewis followed by two points from frees by his brother Mark. This was Aghada’s best spell we were in control all over and when Stephen O’Keeffe added a point from play in the 21st minute things looked well. No one told Cloyne that; back they came scoring two points from the boot of James Lynch to leave the score at the short whistle Aghada 1-4 Cloyne 0-3.
Mark Lewis opened Aghada’s account after 32 minutes when again he pointed a free. This turned out to be Aghada’s only score until the 24th Minute when again Mark pointed a dead ball. In between Cloyne chipped away at Aghada’s lead point by point .now it was Aghada’s turn to soak pressure. The full backline came into its, own Michael Morrissey was outstanding in the corner right through the game indeed Scanlon, and Lee were not far behind. Four points on the trot for Cloyne could we hold out A point in front and our backs to the wall Now was the time for hero’s and up they stepped , Young Blood to the fore . Billy Hennessy took the game by the horns and shook it cleaning up attack after attack. enter Sub Brian Morrissey his running with the ball set up two chances of goals one for O’Keeffe but the Cloyne Keeper was equal as he was for the second when he saved from the Sub Conor Hickey would we ever score then another ball from Morrissey found Aidan Cotter (Goal), game set and match . Try as they might there was no way back for Cloyne and try the did .If Cloyne converted there changes when they were on top things could have been different While our young guns more than played their part so did the older lads Adian Berry made a mockery of his years , as did Shorty . This sets up the u21 football semi final between the same Clubs next Sat in Midleton at 5-00pm be there

Sat 7th June East Cork Junior B football Championship Aghada 0-10 Lisgoold 0-4
Junior B's reach semi final
Aghada led from the word go and in truth were only troubled just after half time when Lisgoold threw down the gauntlet. Sean O’Keeffe was the main stay of defence as was Colm O’Brien. Indeed the backline was rock solid with veteran Jim Motherway well ahead of the pack. It was young Declan Morrissey’s day scoring some wonderful points five in all from play and from dead balls. The full forward line of Tony Wall, Niall Falvey, and Dave O’Keeffe were in the thick of things. In the first half Dave was pulled down heading for goal but Falvey’s penalty was saved in the second half Falvey was himself pulled down and from the resulting penalty Steve O’Donoghue opted for a point which Aghada needed to steady the game. Just before that Sean O’Keeffe scored Aghada’s first point of the half when he took a great pass from Morrissey. O’Donoghue added another point before Morrissey got the last score to leave Aghada winners on the scoreline of 0-10 to 0-4 the half time score stood at 0-6 to 0-4
