Silverbridge Notes 4th March 2008

E-mail Print

Senior Team

We hosted Roslea in the final game of the Ulster league and recorded a hard earned one point victory. Playing against the breeze in the first half scores were hard to come by. Thanks to a penalty save from Benny Cumiskey and two good points from midfielder Aidan Hearty we went in a head at half time 4 points to 3. Early second half points from Eugene Byrnes and Damian McCann stretched our lead, but two Roslea goals in a four minute spell mid way through the second half left us with an up hill battle in the closing fifteen minutes. Two Damian McCann points closed the gap but Roslea stretched their lead again with another point. Points from Byrnes G McGarvey and N Reel put us one point ahead. Roslea equalised with time almost up but in the last attack a great long range effort from D McCann sealed victory. Good performances from D McCann A Hearty A Mallie  C Hughes B Bellew.  
Team: B Cumiskey A Mallie C Hughes R Murchan S Murphy N Reel B Bellew A Hearty R Hamill D McCann C Mcavoy B Maguire E Byrne L Campbell P Cumiskey. Subs G McGarvey B Byrnes V Mackin.

The Tenner A Month Club

It is now four years since the Tenner A Month Club was launched to help pay for the new field. It was a great success with many club members joining the scheme.  The direct debits have now come to and end as the scheme was designed to run for four years.Each current member of The Club should by now have received a letter thanking them for their generosity and inviting them to rejoin with a new direct debit for a further four years to help reduce the club debt from the development of the field.  As before, the option to pay cash is still available if preferred.  Anyone wishing to join the scheme please contact Kieran Murphy for further details.
