U14 boys hosted newcomers Valley Rovers on Friday evening and on a very breezy evening both sides took a while to settle into the game. After 15 minutes Villa made the breakthrough with an Iarla Connor goal, Rory McHugh added a 2nd shortly after with Iarla making it 3 just before the break. Early in the 2nd half Joe & Rory McHugh combined to give Rory his 2nd goal and he completed his hat trick when the Joe again put his younger brother through. Not to be outdone Iarla Connor also completed a hat trick and Villas 7th was scored in the final minutes with a fine long range goal from Mark Devaney. It was a great team performance and the lads will hope to continue their winning ways in their next game.
U12 boys had a home fixture on Saturday morning with Strand Celtic the visitors, we had the benefit of the breeze in the first half and created a few chances but were unable to convert them into scores. Two goals in quick succession and against the run of play put strand in the driving seat and with 3 more strand goals in the 2nd half it was a disappointing result. An away game on Saturday to neighbours Western Rovers is our next U12 fixture.
Our Junior Team got a walkover in the Connaught Cup with Merville Utd unable to field on Sunday and progress to the next round.
