The under 13A's took on local neighbours Rathnew AFC in the final of the Premier shield today at Moneystown home of Ashford Rovers. This was always going to be a tough close encounter with both sides coming into the game in confident mood. Rathnew defeated the lads in the cup semi final but the lads had the upper hand in the league. The two sides gave it everything and traded goals with Sam Conyard hitting a first half penalty. The game was put to bed in the last ten minutes when Daniel Connolly popped up with a brace to finally kill off the challenge of the villagers and give the lads an excellent 3-1 victory. As usual it was a tough encounter with no quarters given and played in good spirit. A big thanks to Rathnew for a great final. Congratulations to Mo, Kevin and the team on another great success, well done lads.
