U16 Boys

Red Hugh's had to grit their teeth and dig deep to see off the challenge of N.Columba in yesterdays league final. This was the last game of their season where the boys remained unbeaten throughout league and championship.Yesterdays match was a tough test with N. Columba having a great team who also went unbeaten in the SRB league laced with a few county players.N. Columba were first to score and it took Red Hugh's a while to get up and running despite having a goal chance bravely saved in their first attack. Red Hughs then began to get the scoreboard ticking over and perhaps the difference was Red Hugh's were more economical in front of goals. Caolan McClintock was in fine form throughout and really stepped up when needed. Ryan Coyle also had an immense game with Tiernan Kelly and Oisin Gallagher in around the middle third.However yesterday was a day for the normally unsung heroes. The boys who defend and put their bodies on the line to get the ball to the forwards. Each and everyone of the panel played their part when Red Hugh's lost key men to black cards and a second yellow and adapted and coped to the test.The game was close to the final seconds with Ronan McLaughlin scoring a goal at the last kick of the game on a quick counter attack when N. Columba were pushing for a goal to equalise.  
Final Score 3-7 to 2-4Well done to boys and management. Special mention to the boys coaches who have given unreal dedication and commitment to these young men.
