The
best underage team the Town has ever seen....
|
|
Its
been a long time coming, but our years of work and commitment
have finally paid off.
On
Sunday 26th of January Strokestown were crowned under 21's
champions for the first time in the clubs history. This isn't
just about this year, not even about last year when we worked
so hard to lose the county final by a point after a replay,
this is about the last 11 years this team has been together.
Thus
closes the final chapter of the Town's most successful
underage team ever.
Thanks
Lads!!

Path to
the final:
First
Match:
Strokestown
2-17 Ballimameen 0-2
Many
Strokestown players had recently performed in the connacht
club final and speculation was rife that the U-21 team suffer
because of this. However, Ballinameen were no match for the
Town and the match was a very one-sided affair.
Second
Round:
Strokestown
1-12
Tulsk 0-6
A local
Derby like this one always proves difficult, this one was more
difficult than the scoreline suggests. Some dogged Tulsk
defending meant that the lads had to work for every score.

The nost
