Junior 1 hurling league playoff – Aghada 0-16 Castlemartyr 1-16
Sat 24th Oct Junior A Hurling league play off
Aghada 4-6 Russell Rovers 3-7
Aghada had a good win in very testing conditions in Rostellan on Saturday last. Playing into a strong breeze in the first half, Aghada found themselves trailing for most of this period. Coming up to half time full forward Alan Devoy, received the ball 40 yards from goal and surrounded by defenders. Devoy, however, found a gear he hadn’t used since 1991, and took off on a solo run which finished with him upended in the square. Excellent midfielder John Connolly buried the resulting spotter and Aghada went in at half time 1 point to the good. Aghada got another goal at the start of the second half, but the Shanagarry men fought back with a goal of their own. Connolly got his second and Aghada’s third goal as the rain came lashing down for the last quarter. Fergal Condon was introduced to add a bit of youth and speed to the Aghada full forward line, and not long after his arrival he cleared a load of water off the back of the net, when he rasped in Aghada’s fourth goal. It was backs to the wall defending after that with the Aghada full back line of Davy Hanlon,Cathal O’Gorman and Stevie Cash in brilliant form. Shan did get a goal near the end but Aghada held on for a 2 point victory. Team – M.Day, D.O’Hanlon,C.O’Gorman,S.Cashman, S.Gilroy,L.Day,D.Bowler, P.Wall,J.Connolly, J.Murphy,J.Wall,A.Walsh, D.Kearney,A.Devoy,K.O’Connor.

| More disappointment for the hurlers of the parish when Aghada went out at the Quarterfinal stages of this years b grade championship. Aghada played against a very strong wind in the first half and would have been pleased enough to go in at the break 8 points to 2 down. Aghada were grateful for some excellent defending from Cathal O’Gorman, Stephen Cashman and Liam Day during this period. On the turn around Aghada started to peg back the deficit, and quickly had the lead down to just 3 points. It was a close as they got to however as Cloyne upped their performance to run out deserving victors by 6 points. Aghada Team – M.Day,S.Cashman,A.Connolly,L.Day,A.Heavin,J.Murphy,C.O’Gorman,Mk.

Not as easy as the scoreline might suggest as Aghada were made
to fight all the way by a gallant Killeagh third string. Played
in Castlemartyr last Tuesday week Aghada started slowly even though
they had the wind. It wasn’t until Kieran O’Connor got
into his stride with a couple of excellent points from centre forward,
that Aghada managed to impose themselves on this game. At the back
Aghada were well on top with the full back line of Liam Day , Anthony
Connolly and Stephen Cashman especially impressive. A good goal
from Derek Bowler coming up to half time gave Aghada a bit of breathing
space turning to play into the wind, Halftime score Aghada 1-7 Killeagh
0-2. |
| The young and the old put up a
mighty display as Aghada got over a slow start. Evergreen Peter
Cashman opened the scoring with a point that would grace any game.
The saints came back with two goals as Aghada’s defence was
in the jitters, slow to clear the ball and Ita’s make full
use of it. With Cashman revelling at centre forward Aghada came
more into the game. Minor player Paudie Wall started to show his
class and as the game got older Paudie got better impressing the
intermediate selectors. John Connelly and Mark Lewis started to
get a grip at centre field with both scoring great points. Aghada
clawed they’re way back into the game then just on the short
whistle Connelly goaled from a semi penalty to put Aghada ahead
for the first time 1-7 to 2-2. On resumption Aghada pilled on the pressure some great points followed before Derrick Bowler rattled the net. Fair play to Ita’s back they came with a goal and a point and started to put our backs under the hammer. John Murphy, Cathal O’Gormain, Stephen Cashman and Anthony Connelly were equal to the task. With the veteran Cashman back on the forty Aghada got back on top and when Wall capped a fine display with a goal our mind turned to the next round against Killeagh. Team; Martin Day Laim Day , Anthony Connelly, Stephen Cashman Aidan Heven John Murphy, Cathal O’Gormain John Connelly Mark Lewis Derrick Bowler, Peter Cashman, Paudie Wall Kerian O’Connor , Paul O’Donoghue , Declan Kearney Subs used Alan Walsh for Paul O’Donoghue 35m, Fergal Condon, Mark Galvin |
Mon 24th May junior hurling league
Aghada 1-13 Castlemartyr 1-11
The Junior hurlers finally collected their first brace of points on Monday last when they recorded an excellent win over Castlemartyr in Castlemartyr. Inspired by the excellent play of John Connolly and Mark Lewis at midfield Aghada took this game to their opponents right from the off and led at half time by 7 points to 3 points. A goal early in the second half by the returning evergreen Peter Cashman gave Aghada a bit of a cushion in the second half. In defence Stephen Cashman was doing a very good impersonation of Wayne Sherlock, clearing ball after ball from corner back.New signing Aiden Heavin finally got to make his debut and played very well through out at wing back, capping it off with an excellent point in the first half. Kieran O’ Connor was a constant thorn in the side of the Castlemartyr defence with his strong solo runs and in the end Aghada held on for a 1-13 to 1-11 victory. Team – M.Day, A.Connolly,W.O’Donoghue,S.Cashman, A.Heavin,J.Murphy,L.Day, M.Lewis,J.Connolly, J.Wall,P.Cashman,P.Wall, K.O’Connor(capt), D.Bowler,A.Walsh. Subs Used: M.Galvin,A,O’Brien. |
