It is wonderful to see so many local businesses investing in both their community and the future of Elphin GAA. As sponsorship spaces continue to fill, the club would encourage any business interested in promoting their company while supporting this exciting development to get in touch. There are also a number of seats in the new stand still available for sponsorship by families and individuals wishing to leave a lasting legacy at Orchard Park.

The minor footballers got the better of St. Ciaran’s/Tulsk, 2-14 to 2-4, in their quarter-final in Kilbride on Tuesday evening.

St. Ciaran’s/Tulsk attempted to mount a comeback and eventually got off the mark with a point from a free, but Kilbride responded immediately through a fine score from Luke Hayes.

The home side made a solid start and gradually took control of proceedings. Early scores from Oísin O’Beirne and Marc Shally helped Kilbride settle into the game before a well-taken goal from John Donnelly gave them a firm foothold. Further points from Cormac Naughton, Kevin Battles and O’Beirne ensured Kilbride remained on top throughout the opening half. A goal from Michael Devine shortly before the break put Kilbride in a strong position, and they went in at half time leading by 2-10 to 0-5. Kilbride continued to dictate matters after the restart, maintaining their intensity and defensive discipline. Scores from Oísin O’Beirne and Alan Merriman kept the scoreboard ticking over before the game opened up in the final quarter. Goals from Izidro Ribas, Josh McCormack and two more from Michael Devine put the result beyond doubt. Michael Devine finished as Kilbride’s top scorer with an impressive return of 3-1, while Oísin O’Beirne contributed seven points in an accomplished team performance.
