CLONDUFF U12s WIN ST JOHN’S TOURNAMENT 2015

Captain Conor McCumisky lifted the Cup to rapturous applause where all 13 Clonduff boys basked in the summer sunshine of delight! It was a truly fitting conclusion to a super day’s football (Saturday 23rd May 2015) where all the great skills of Gaelic football were on display. In particular, The Yellas support play and inter-passing game was what impressed most enabling a more complete team performance – team-work at its best!
In the final The Yellas were pitted against a real quality, well-drilled, big Bredagh team who had defeatd them in the group stages. No motivating pre-match team talk was needed. Spurred on by each other’s encouragement they powered their way to a convincing victory where possession football frustrated the Bredagh outfit enabling the Yellas to keep the pressure on the opposition defence to a point where they finally gave way. Final score: Clonduf 1-3 Bredagh 0-2.
