The two U12 unbeaten team meet 29/06/2003
UNDER 12's Mayobridge 4.5 Burren 2.2
The only two unbeaten teams in their section of the south Down League, Mayobridge and Burren met at the Bridge on Saturday afternoon and after an exciting game of football, it was the young Sky Blues who emerged victorious; winning 4.5 to 2.2. In the first half it was Burren who looked the more likely side and they went in at the break leading 1.2 to 0.2.
On the restart the Bridge selectors made a few positional changes and these had the desired effect. Helped by a hat trick of goals from corner forward Padraig Gribben the Bridge forged ahead and when the final whistle sounded, nine points separated the sides. Both sides deserve great credit for the entertainment served up and the skills and enthusiasm displayed would have put many a senior side to shame.
