This is the first game for both teams in this competition

The U14 boys from Ballybridge have burst their way into the league final. Castlebridge Celtic held an advantage of an away goal from the first leg, when we drew 1-1. Our away leg began in Castlelyons in very blustery conditions. Alex Costigan hit the back of the net with our first goal. But Castlebridge came right back from the centre and equalised. Half time arrive and we were pleased with clawing our way back 2-2 on aggregate with the advantage of playing away from home.

All we needed was a goal and they would have to score twice. Enter Conor Lee, Ladysbridge's local hero gets the winner. Conor scores a fantastic goal which launched into a frantic second half of valour and defensive excellence. A superb effort by all the players, it would be rude to pick a man of the match as they all played to well.

Congratulation to the entire squad, a place in the League Final is your reward. Jack McGann and Sean Duggan really impressed in the first half and Paul Kent and Ciaran O'Brien were very impressive in the second half. Happy away days.

Mogeely were too strong for Ballybridge on this fine Saturday afternoon for a 3pm kick off in the community sport field in Ballymacoda.

Cian Ryan opened the scoring picking up the ball from midfield and cutting through the ballybridge defence to shoot past the ballybridge keeper. More pressure from Mogeely led to corner for Mogeely. Colin Murphy delivering a fantastic ball to the back post where James O Donovan was there to meet the cross making it 2 nil. The third was through ball from midfield leaving Joshua Vaughan one on one with the ballybridge keeper and he calmly rounded the keeper to pass it into an empty net. Mogeely 4th came from some neat passing from Mogeely on the left and the ball eventually broke to Colin Murphy outside the Ballybridge box where he struck a sweet strike which was just too high for the Ballybridge keeper. Mogeely 5th was a replica of the third with Joshua Vaughan again one on one with the keeper and coming out on top.

2nd half ballybridge started very strong and put Mogeely under a lot of pressure and got just reward with a goal from there right hand side.

The tide again turned Mogeelys way with Joshua Vaughan breaking down the right and striking a good effort from the right hand side of the box low and hard into the left corner of the goal. James O Donovan then scored a brace to ensure he joined Joshua Vaughan on a hatrick. Dion Drake was then unlucky hitting the post before Colin Murphy broke through the Ballybridge defence to complete the scoring.
