Main Sponsor – Irving Oil U21 A County Football Quarter Final – Aghada 1-9 v Kilmurray 2-13; Pairc Ui Rinn 18/7/2018 Our U21 footballers
bowed out of the county championship at quarter final stage after defeat to Kilmurray for the 2nd year in a row. Again we were back in Pairc Ui Rinn, and just like in our recent senior game we started quicker out of the blocks. On this occasion however, we also finished a lot of the chances we created. A well worked goal on 2 minutes, fin- ished home by Diar- maid Phelan after being put in by a neat
pass
from Alan Hogan, was Aghada’s opening score. 2 minutes latter Kalen O’Donoghue made an incredible burst from full back, played a one two with Charlie Terry, and then pointed himself on the run. On 13 minutes Alan Hogan was fouled when through on goals and when Daniel Cree- don pointed the free, the scoreboard read 1-3 v 0-2 in Aghada’s favour. Both Kilmurray points had come from play. Now Aghada really started to dominate, with Mar- cus Leahy and Charlie Terry bossing the oppo- sition kickouts. A Kevin O’Hanlon mazy run was stopped illegally and Creedon kicked his 2nd free. Charlie caught the next kickout aswell and this time Aaron Berry was put through on goal and he fired over the bar from close range. Next up wing back Cal Bawden made a surging run from wing back and pointed
on 20 minutes. A minute later Charlie found O Hanlon, who again beat his man and bore down on the Kilmurray goal. His shot for the roof of the net, was tipped over by the Kilmurray ‘keeper, but still and all, Aghada now had a 7 point lead, and were on top all over the field. The mid Cork men pointed a free on 23 minutes, which was quickly cancelled out by another fine score from O’Hanlon. Kilmurray then had the last point of the half to leave the score at the break, Aghada 1-7 v Kilmurray 0-4. Going into the dressing room at halftime full value for the 6 point lead and playing well in all areas of the pitch, things looked good for Aghada. But how it all changed after the restart. Kilmurray came out a
transformed side for the second half. They took over the
kickouts and
especially the breaking ball, and were on the front foot from the min- ute go. The 6 point lead was gone in 5 minutes. 1-2 was kicked from play and one pointed free. The goal was a bit of a scrambled effort after an initial save from Ciaran O Shea in the Aghada goal. Still Aghada re- took the lead on the 38 minute. Berry and Han- lon combining to set up Charlie for a point. The Aghada supporters must still have thought, given the 1st
half showing, that
Aghada would get anoth- er period of dominance at some point in the 2nd half. It never happened though, as Kilmurray went from strength to strength. They kicked the next 3 points from play,
before a Danny free af- ter Niall Hill was fouled, made it just a one point game with 10 minutes to play. That wasn’t the real story however. In reality the opening 20 minutes had gone 1-6 versus 2 points in Kilmurray’s favour and despite
the
best efforts of Kalen O Donoghue, Kyle O’Shea and others, that ascend- ency didn’t look like be- ing challenged in the last 10 minutes. It wasn’t, and Kilmurray kicked another 1-4 in the clos- ing stages. The goal an exceptional finish to the roof of the Aghada net. Aghada’s only response was to draw a brilliant treble save from the Kil- murray rear-guard, when Aghada seemed certain to score a 2nd
goal of
their own. So it finished 2-13 v 1-9. Kilmurray deservedly go through to the semi-final stages. For Aghada, the lads can still be very proud of their ef- forts after giving us an en- tertaining year that start- ed with the 1st
East Cork
game as far back as the 23rd you
of February would believe. Another
East Cork title in the bag and plenty to be positive about looking ahead to the future of the club.

sport@eastcorkjournal.ie Notes
Junior B Hurling Championship – Aghada 0-9 v Youghal 5-16 The 1st
round of this
year’s East Cork JB hurl- ing championship was a very one sided affair in Shanagarry on Friday last the 13th
had a number of players that might go on and play on their first team later this year, while Aghada are
of July. Youghal probably closer to
the C grading with this group. The result there- fore was inevitable, and Youghal wasted little time in hammering home their obvious superiority. Their 1st
two scores were
green flags and they had a point from play on 10 mins before Mark McCa- rthy opened the Aghada account
ed free on 13 minutes. From the 15th
minute, Youghal rattled off 5 points. Mark, after being fouled himself, hit Aghada’s second on 17 minutes. Mark, Mathew Leahy, Luke O’Connell and Aiden O’Connell were trying hardest for Aghada, and the two O’Connells combined to create a goal chance for Luke which was well saved by the
‘keeper.
Had we scored howev- er, the goal would only have cancelled out 3rd
the
scored in the 22nd ute. They had a 4th
goal Youghal had just min- goal
on 26 minutes and a 5th on the stroke at halftime, which left
score 5-11 v 0-3. Again it was Mark with Aghada’s 3rd
point, this time a fine
score from play. Aghada turned to play
with the wind in the sec- ond half, and to their great credit, they refused to lie down and contin- ued to give every honest effort for the second half. Early in the half Aaron Berry met his man with

a very hefty shoulder, and it seemed to be the signal for Aghada to draw a line under the hammering they took in the 1st
half.
Tommy Dobbyn, Ciaran Galligan and Craig Ho- gan did well when intro- duced, with Luke Foley and Ger Lynch on top for the 2nd
period. Aiden
O’Connell continued to impress as did namesake Luke, who would draw 3 more excellent saves from the Youghal keeper. All 3 of these saves ultimate- ly led to 3 points from placed balls from Mark McCarthy who also con- tinued his fine showing from the 1st
half. Corner
forward Alan Walsh also chipped in with a point from play in the 5th
min-
ute after the restart, and Luke pointed from play from the resulting puck out. When all was said and done Aghada won the 2nd
half 6 points to
Youghal’s 5, and while overall that might be scant consolation, under the circumstances huge huge credit is due to the Aghada team for stand- ing their ground in that second half. Aghada will now play
Watergrasshill, in the back door of this compe- tition.

– Aghada 1-23 v Dungourney 2-11; Rostellan, 22/7/2018 So after a week of
championship defeats for the club, there was some light at the end of the tunnel when our Premier Intermediate
hurlers
gave a fine performance on route to picking up two league points against Dungourney on Sunday evening last. Playing with the wind and boosted by the return of Will Leahy from a long term injury, Aghada were quickly into their stride, with Leahy in sublime form at
full
forward. Aghada led 4 points to no score, before being rocked somewhat by Dungourney’s first score which was a goal from a penalty. Leahy, who would finish the half with 5 points from play, quickly got the score- board going for Agha- da again. That would start a run of 10 points for Aghada before the break, 9 from play, all fine scores, 2 from long range from Billy Hennessy at wingback. In response the Duns’s hit 3 points from play, and at halftime Aghada had a deserved lead on a 14pts to 1-3 scoreline. Dungourney turned
to play with the wind in the second half, but never really looked like mak- ing significant inroads into the deficit. The sides quickly exchanged 2 points each, before wing forward Charlie Terry quickly fired over two great scores – the 1st
from
the left sideline on 7 min- utes and his second from the opposite sideline a minute
later. Next
was the score that put the game beyond doubt. Ro- nan Kennedy was fouled going through on goals and Cian Fleming bur- ied the resulting penalty. 1-18 to 1-5 with 11 min-
Shanagarry.

utes on the second half clock, only one outcome from there. From the 13th
to the 25th
minute,
Aghada outscored their opponents 5 points to 4. With Aghada then mak- ing a number of changes, Dungourney finished the stronger hitting 1-3 in the last 5 minutes to take some of the bad look off the final score. Overall, albeit with a bit of rust- iness on view, it was an impressive team perfor- mance with some fine hurling and well taken scores.
