Junior Football Update
Carryduff v Saval -22/5/04
This was the junior ladies first home fixture
and was played under ideal weather conditions
on Saturday evening.
The two evenly matched teams provided entertaining
football for the vocal Carryduff home support.
The first half saw the half backs Antonia O’Kane,
Donnla Fisher and Emma Swail getting a good supply
of ball in to the forwards where Aine Molloy,
Gemma Mulligan, Susan Irvine, Nuala Small, Niamh
Dawson and Deirdre Swail all tried hard. At the
interval Saval lead by a point.
The play was very close during the second half
where Suzanne Baxter and Claire Adams did a lot
of work at midfield. The full back line of Caoimhe
McDonald, Claire McGoran and Siobhan O’Grady
had to try hard to keep the roving Saval forwards
at bay especially the nippy Natasha. Kathryn Rooney
was kept busy in the goals and made some telling
clearances. Eimear McKay and Mairead McKee tried
hard when they were introduced.
This performance showed that this team is well
capable of competing with the more established
ladies clubs and if something can be done about
shooting then their first win should not be too
far away.
Final score Saval 3-7 Carryduff 1-5
NOTE - T raining on Thursday evenings for junior
and under 16 ladies will be at Lough Moss. Time
6-00 to 7-30. All current and new members welcome.

U-14's Defeat Dromara
The u-14's travelled to Dromara on Tuesday with
a place in the next round of league fixtures already
assured.
The boys had a tight grip on the game right up
to half-time. Half-time score, Carryduff 2-13,
Dromara 1-2. Disaster struck in the 28th minute
when full back Ryan Forrestt attempted to block
a goal bound shot. He landed very awkwardly and
broke his arm. We wish Ryan all the best in his
recovery and are sure that he will be sorely missed
by the squad.
This had an understandable negative effect on
the rest of the squad who just held on in the
end to win by 4 points. Final score, Carryduff
3-17 , Dromara 5-7.

Seniors Win In Thriller.
The seniors produced a dramatic comeback to beat
visitors Glenn in their rearranged fixture on
Monday night.
Six points down with only eight minutes remaining,
Carryduff finally produced the form that they
are capable of to win by 2-10 to 0-15.
The visitors started strongly with three early
points (2,4,6) as their movement and speed caused
havoc in the Carryduff back line. This was rectified
by Gavin Kelly and Philip Maguire switching opponents.
As Carryduff settled they were given a major
boost with Eamonn Blaney (11) punching the ball
to the net after Ronan Lawlor had dropped a free
perfectly to the edge of the square. Chris O'Neill
put Carryduff into the lead in the fifteenth minute
with a free.
Glenn (16,17), Eamonn Blaney (20), Glenn (21,22),
Michael Brethnall (25) and Chris O'Neill (28)
swapped points to see the tie level at half time.
Ceathrú Aodha Dhuibh 1-04 Glenn 0-07
Glenn opened the second half scoring with two
scores (1,3) as Carryduff started slowly. A Chris
O'Neill (5) free kept the Duff in it but a number
of unforced handling errors and wayward passes
threatened to undo Carryduff as Glenn scored 4
on the trot (8,10,12,14).
Ryan Hanna's introduction for the final quarter
saw the game change direction as his fielding
and driving runs proved too much for Glenn who
struggled to get the ball out of their half.
Ryan notched his first point of the game on 17
minutes, and even though Glenn managed two final
points (19,20) to move them six points clear,
it was Carryduff who were dominating.
Ryan added his second score in the (22) minute
followed by one from Barry O'Neill (24). Mickey
Brethnall (25) sent the home crowd wild by finishing
off a Brian McCreanor break through to leave only
a point in it. Chris O'Neill (26) scored his 4th
point of the match to draw the sides level.
With Tom Scullion and Gavin Kelly mopping up
any attempted Glenn break out, Carryduff pressed
for the winner and it duly arrived in the final
minute of the game from the boot of Ryan Hanna
to give Carryduff the one point win.
