update 22 April

On Tuesday 19th U16 girls continued in their winning ways with a 5 goals to 1 defeat of Gurteen. Villa were on top for most of the 1st half and Marie Ruane broke the deadlock midway through the 1st half. Gurteen clawed their way back with a deserved equalizer on the stroke of half time. Villa came out a different team in the 2nd half, they took the lead with a Megan Duffy penalty. Player of the match Aoife Connolly got on the score sheet wit a close range effort, the 4th goal came from Geraldine Ruane with a fine long range shot and Aoife Connolly scored her 2nd with a few minutes remaining. A little bit of history was made with the 3 Ruane sisters lining out on the one team. Next game is a home game V Manor Rangers on Saturday.

On Thursday 21st the U14 Girls travelled to Gurteen but unfortunately the game did not go ahead.

update 18 April 2011

U12 Cubs played their final league game on Friday away to Merville. In one of their best perfornances so far they played some good football and two goals from Stephen Mulligan had them leading by 2 goals to 1 with only minutes to go when Merville equalised from a free kick coming against the run of play. The defence had done a great job and kept Merville at bay for long periods but it was a good overall team performance and the players can hold their heads high. U18 Girls beat trand Celtic on Saturday on a score of 3 goals to 1. Villa opened the scoring in the 1st minute with a long renge effort from Emer McHugh. The game was end to end with srand having the better of the exchanges and several chances but didn't capitalise on them. Strand equalised 5 minutes from the break but Villa responded immediately with McHughs 2nd. She held off several challenges before slotting the ball under the advancing keeper. Villa had the better of te exchanges in the 2nd half and increased their lead after 15 minutes with a great individual effort from Leanne Dunne. Emer McHugh hit the post and Lisa Kilgannon had a shot smothered by the strand keeper. The Villa defence was resilliant in their defending and help out for a convincing victory. U14 Girls had their opening game of the season away to Yeats utd and were disappointed to come away with a 5 goal to nil defeat. Next game is away to Gurteen next Thursday evening whwre the girle will hope to put thet result behind them. On Sunday the Junior team hosted Merville in the Sligo Pallets Premier League and will be bitterly disappointd to lose on a score of 3 goals to 1. Villa went 2 goals down early on but in a game where we enjoyed the better of the chances from then on will feel that the points could have been saved. A penalty appeal when Culkin apperaed to be fouled inside the box and later when Fergal Kilgannon beat the Merville offside trap when he appeared to be pulled down were the main talking points of the 2nd half.

11th April update

Training Tuesday @ 5pm------ The U14 Boys travelled to Gurteen on Saturday in the League Qtr Final knowing a win would reward them with a home fixture to Yeats in the semi final. It was a game in which we had several chances to put the home side away but despite good pressure were unable to convert it into scores. The game finished level at 1goal apiece after extra time but Villa lost out in the penalty shoot out. This was a very disappointing result but full credit to the lads for their hard work all season. Well done also to James Hynes & Eoin Conlon on their first year managing the lads.-------- Villa U18 Girls were defeated by Yeats Utd, in what was a poor 1st half Villa took the lead from the penalty spot 5 minutes before the break, Megan Duffy converted. Yeats came out a different team after the break and got 3 well taken goals and were it not for Villa keeper Sinead Hallinan it could have been more. Villa's 2nd goal, from the penalty spot 10 minutes from time was again dispatched by Megan Duffy. Dromore Villa 2 Yeats Utd 3. Next weeks game away to Strand Celtic is a must win game for the girls.------------ On Sunday afternoon Dromore Villa hosted Cartron Utd in the Mc Sharry & Foley Cup and were convincing winners on a scoreline of 3 goals to nil.
