It certainly has been a busy week for a plethora of Maree/Oranmore fc with competitive games and blitzes being the order of the day.
Our u13 boys and girls have had a good week,the U13 Premier boys had a well earned and merited 2-1 victory at home to Salthill Devon with Conor Goodwin and Jonathan Smith both netting.The u13 championship girls side had two fine wins this week against Colemanstown Utd and St Bernards.The Colemanstown game saw a comfortable win with Katie Quirke,Ava Mullins and Ciara Cormican netting while last Sunday in Abbeyknockmoy the girls squeezed by on a 4-3 scoreline against St Bernards with Katie Quirke(2),Ava Mullins and Sarah Mc Cluskey doing the business.The u13 girls next game is this coming Thursday on Caulfield Park Maree ko 6.45pm.
The U14 Premier and U16 Premier sides both drew in exciting encounters,the u14 Premier lads were held to a 3-3 draw against Knocknacarra fc with the goals arriving via Harry Gilbert,Jack Leahy and Fergal Takaza.The U16 Premier side came from two down to draw 2-2 with a very good Galway Hibernians side with Seamie Fallon and Max Hawksley scoring.
