SUPER WIN FOR U15’S IN CHAMPIONSHIP

St Michaels 3-12 Fermoy 2-07

A superb battling performance from our U15 team below in Castle Road tonight under lights. Against a very strong and capable Fermoy side they dug out a result that seemed unlikely after six minutes. In that opening period ,Fermoy struck for two goals and a point, before we opened our account with a free, followed up shortly after with a superbly worked team goal from Tom. This team doesn’t know how to give up , and after starting to get to grips around the middle they steadily clawed their way back into the game. In fact Fermoy only managed to score a further six points in the remainder of the match from the 7th minute onwards. This because of the never say die attitude of the lads who tackled superbly after the early setback. Fermoy kicked two big scores on the 15 minute mark  but this kick started the Michaels recovery who went on to score the next 8 points that sent us to HT with a four point advantage. Fermoy weren’t going to lie down though , and three unanswered points from them brought it back to the minimum. Anyone’s game now, but it was Michaels who responded the better with a pointed free to settle things down before a Tadgh Quirke goal put us back into the driving seat once more. A Fermoy free made it a four point game again and a black card for Michaels with 4 mins made for a nervous finish. A super Max save at his near post broke Fermoy , as up the field we went, and Tadgh Quirke added his second and our third goal of the night before a Tom free at the death rounded off a superb win. #stmichaelsabú

U21’s unlucky in defeat

Hard luck to our U21’s who lost out to Nemo below in Páirc Mhichíl Naofa this morning. A battling performance from our lads and only for a great save from Nemo’s custodian at the death we could be celebrating a win. Well done to all the players and selectors who gave their all in the St Michaels jersey.

Great win for St Michaels ladies

A fantastic win for @stmichaelslgfc Junior Team in a highly competitive Round 1 County Championship match at Páirc Mhichíl Naofa against a strong @kildorrery side last Saturday evening.

Kildorrery were the stronger team in the first half and led by two points at the break. However, @stmichaelslgfc were determined to make an impact in the second half. A superb second-half performance, with every player giving their all, saw St Michael’s emerge victorious on a scoreline of 1-10 to 0-10.

Thanks to the large crowd who attended and supported both teams last evening. They were treated to some fantastic football, with great skill, teamwork, and determination on display throughout from both sides.

Well done to @kildorrery for a highly competitive and sporting game, and best of luck in the County Junior Championship.

Congratulations to the St Michael’s players and management team 🏐🟢🔰🟡🏐

JUNIORS ADVANCE TO FINAL , MINORS LOSE OUT

We had a mixed bag tonight with our Junior B’s and Minors. Above in Páirc Uí Laoire,our Juniors advanced to the Flor McCarthy Cup final after a classic game against Ballyphehane, which resulted in a two point win for the lads after extra time. Below in Páirc Mhichíl Naofa , our Minors gave it their all against Croke Rovers. They went in at half time three down but managed to get back into the game and edge a goal ahead with less than a quarter to go. A two pointer from Croke Rovers and soon after , a goal, ensured the  lads from North Cork took the trophy home. Hard luck lads , a good prep for the upcoming Championship

St Michaels 1-06   Valley Rovers 2-11

A disappointing result tonight for our Seniors in Round 5 of the McCarthy Insurance Group Division 2 League below in Páirc Mhichíl Naofa. The blustery conditions were prevalent from the off ,and it was the visitors who made the most of it, particularly in the second half, when they ran out easy winners after a dull enough opening 30 mins. We will move on to our next fixture in Dunmanway against Doheny’s hoping to bounce back after tonight.
