AGHADA HURLING AND FOOTBALL CLUB

Aghada won this hard fought game at the death after missing a free in normal time to win the game. Eoin O’ Neill pointed but the ref blew the whistle as the ball crossed the bar and he was awarded a free instead which he missed.

Castlelyons dominated the opening half playing with the wind led at the short whistle by 4 points to 1 Aghada’s only score was an Eoin O’Neill free. On the turn around Aghada took the game to the Castlelyons boys. Michael Lewis came on corner forward and made a difference straight away. O’Neill pointed two dead balls in as many minutes to leave the bare minimum between the sides. A great point from Mickie levelled matters as Aghada turned the screw. O’Neill put Aghada in front for the 1st time with ten minutes left. Castlelyons rallied and two points on the troth had them in front coming down the home straight. Aghada fought back to level matters at six points all. Them came the afore mentioned free and on to extra time.
Castlelyons had the wind to their backs for the first half and applied the pressure but a single point was their lot but only for the intervention of capt Billy Hennessy it was curtains as a sure goal looked on. Aghada failed to score up to the brake. On resumption Finbarr Day took over kicking duties and he levelled matters with five minutes left. The game by now was at fever pitch as both side spilled ball due to the conditions. The play was up and down the field at a fierce rate despite the weather as both sides strived for the winner. Aghada got the chance with a free as extra time was up but it drifted wide and one though it was off to Castlelyons next Sunday but with 3 minutes of Injury time gone Aghada were awarded a free this time Finbarr made no mistake and that was that.
Hard on Castlelyons as it could easily have been a draw. Great credit to both sides that gave it all on a wet and slippery field. It is along time since Eoin O’Neill was the youngest in the full forward line. Kenneth at one side and Mickie the other total 119 years what a line.

Sat 31st Oct Junior B F C semi final

Aghada 1-7 Bride Rvs 2-9

Aghada bowed out of championship last Sat when a very strong Bride Rvs took the honours in a windy Rostellan.
Aghada started slowly with a strong wind to their backs. The Rovers opened the scoring with a minor. Tony Wall replied for the home side. Rovers pushed ahead with 2 points before Vincent planted a placed ball over the bar. Then as the 1st Quarter finished the best forward on view Tony Wall rattled the net as Aghada hit the front for the 1st time. Morrissey and Wall added a point each to see Aghada ahead by 1-4 to 3 points at the short whistle. Now facing the wind Aghada upped the tempo when Eoin Cotter landed a super point Aghada went 5 points up. But this only acted as a spur, as the Rovers started to use the wind to full advantage opening the defence at will. By the 41st minute the sides were level after the Rathcormac outfit ran up 1-2. still Aghada held firm as Alan Walsh and Billy Hennessy tried to stem the tide, but then on the 47th m the Bride won a penalty which was converted more points followed as Aghada struggled to make head way against the wind. A great effort by evergreen Michael Lewis was denied by the post and with that Aghada’s chance of making the final went.

Aghada 3-7 Fr. O'Neill's 0-6

Aghada’s Junior A footballers qualified for this years league final after a 7 point win over Fr. O'Neills in perfect conditions in Ballymacoda last Saturday afternoon. This win sets up a final against our near rivals Cloyne. To be fair the score line didn’t reflect how close this game was and the only difference was our forwards finishing which was clinical to say the least when the goal opportunities arose. 3 Well taken goals from Tony Wall – Ronan Kennedy and Eoin O Neill were the difference between the two teams. Other strong performers on the afternoon were Stevie Cashman, Chris Cashman, Alan Walsh and Richard Goode.

Sun 12th April J F C 3rd Aghada 1- 9 Castlemartyr 0-14

Aghada travelled to Youghal On Sunday last for the third round fixture with Castlemartyr. Missing some important players through Injury and work commitments meant Aghada were always struggling to find top form in this contest. Aghada Started brightly enough and a few well taken points from the outstanding Matt O Connor got us off the mark. Castlemartyr got back into the game and only for some wayward shooting would have seen them further in front. A great sideline from Davey Creedon and a good score on the run from Declan Morrissey had Aghada back on top but some quick fire points from the opposition meant the score at the break was 0-7 each. The second half started with a couple of frees from Eoin O Neill and a great save from Andrew O’ Donoghue but Castlemartyr scored a point from the rebound. Castlemartyr then took complete control of the game and it was to be nearly 20 mins before Aghada registered another score. The game looked to be heading away from us but the never say die attitude of our lads came out again and a great move resulted in John Wall crashing home a great goal and 1 min later John O Connor was very unlucky to find his goal bound punch tipped over the bar by the defence.
So all in all a 2 point defeat in what must register as a major disappointment for our lads

Fri 13th Mar East Cork Junior Football Championship

Aghada 1-8 Glanmire 0-8

Aghada got this year’s football championship off to a fine start when they had a goal to spare over a very strong Glanmire team under lights in Carrigtwohill on Friday night. Having decided to play with the wind Aghada were first to score when a sweeping move from corner back up the field resulted in John O Connor scoring the opening point on 8 mins. Shortly after Aghada took command of the game when Matt O Connor ghosted through the Glanmire defence to slot home a wonderful goal. Sean O Donoghue popped up from midfield with another fine point from play and a free from Mark Lewis made it 1-3 to 0-0 after quarter of an hour. Glanmire came back into it and two fine points from play cut the margin. A 45 from Mark Lewis and a well taken fisted point from Mick Russell opened up a bit of a cushion for Aghada. Glanmire got one more point from play before half time to leave the scores at half time 1-5 to 0-3 in favour of Aghada. A great run and point from wing Back Paudie Wall got Aghada off to a perfect start in the second half. From this Glanmire charged into the game and kick 3 unanswered points to put the pressure back on Aghada. In the 44th min a free from Mark Lewis seemed to settle Aghada. An off the ball incident in which Paudie" Ronaldo Wall went down saw Glanmire being reduced to 14 men. Another Mark free gave Aghada a cushion of 5 points going into the last five minutes but 2 quick points from Glanmire saw the deficit cut to just a goal with a few minutes remaining. It was all hands on deck as we had to keep them out and it took a flying save from full back Conor Rice from a free kick at the end to see Aghada safely into the next round.
