News april 10th to 17th
U12 Boys.
The U12 boys qualified for the league quarter finals with a good win over St Johns in Carrowroe on Tuesday the 10th. Villa played with a slight breeze in the 1st half and although we had good possession and created a few chances it was scoreless at the break. The lads upped the pace in the 2nd half and created a few good scoring chances before Paul Clarke poked the ball into the net after a goalmouth scramble. The 2nd goal came when St Johns conceded a penalty when Fionn Connolly was pushed over in the box, Gavin Connolly scored with a well struck shot into the corner of the net. St Johns kept up the pressure and looked dangerous on the break but the result was sealed when Evan Kilrehill scored Villa's 3rd. There were good displays from David Hallinan at the back, Evan Kilrehill in midfield and Fionn Connolly up front. Our next game is an away quarter final to arrow Harps on Wednesday the 25th.
The U18 Girls have a home tie in the League Semi Final when they host Manor Rangers at 6:30 on Thurs 19th.
This is sure to be a tight affair as there has been little between the teams in their previous meetings so your support would be much appreciated.
U14 Boys have a League Semi Final the following week when they also play hosts to Manor Rangers on Thursday the 26th, kick off is 6:30pm.
This should also be a tight game as a place in the League Final is the reward for the winners so come along and cheer the lads on.
In the Sligo Pallets Premier Michael, David and the lads have just 2 games left, both are away, to Calry Bohs this Sunday the 22nd at 11am and on Wednesday the 2nd of May they wrap up this years campaign with a trip to Real Tubber with a 7pm kick off.
Our scrap metal collection has been extended to the end of this week so if you've done the spring clean now is the time to get rid of any scrap metal of any kind that is lying about. Drop off point is at Hynes' pitch and thanks to all who have contributed to make this such a successful fundraiser for the club.

U12
Dromore Villa beat Manor Rangers 1 – 0. The match was played in very windy conditions, with Dromore Villa playing against the wind in the first half. It was difficult to play good football, but Villa created a few chances and the game remained scoreless at half time. Manor Rangers defended well in the second half, but some good passing and movement created a chance for Villa with Fionn Connolly and Cahan Hallinan linking up well together in forwards and Cahan Hallinan scoring the only game of the match. There were some good displays from Dromore Villa from Gavin Connolly at the back and Paul Clarke in midfield which should stand to them well for the next match.

Villa scored first with some good movement down the wing from Paul Clarke to score the first goal, but Real Tubber quickly replied. It was hard to play good football with the windy conditions. At half-time the teams were level at 2 – 2. Villas 3rd goal came from a great run from Paul Clarke in midfield and he finished it off well. We conceded a penalty late in the second half which Real Tubber scored to make it 3 – 4. Villa tried hard to get back on even terms but Tubber defended well, some fine displays from Dromore Villa from Paul Clarke in midfield, Simon Mullarkey in goals and Shane O'Brien in defence.
On a sad note Dromore Villa F.C. extend sympathy to the family of John Lynagh who died tragically over the weekend, our thoughts and prayers are with his family at this sad time.

Girls U-18’s
Villa U-18 girls recorded their second win of the season defeating Strand Celtic 2 – 1. Played in blustery conditions Villa had most of the possession in the first half and playing against the breeze they took the lead late in the first half when Megan Duffy fired in from close range following a free kick that was cleared out to her. Villa increased their lead after the restart when Aoife Connolly set up Lisa Kilgannon who took the shot from just outside the box. Sloppy Villa defending allowed Strand back into the game. This seemed to spur Dromore Villa on and a great strike from Marie Ruane brought an equally great save from the Strand keeper.
Our U10s played a challenge V Strand Celtic on Saturday in Sligo Rovers astro pitch, as it is non competitive scores/results are not recorded but I think its fair to say our boys and girls came home the happier!!!
Community Park Update
The past week has seen a lot of work taking place with the reseeded pitches being cut for the first time this year. The grass is knitting in well and with regular cutting should fill in even better. On Saturday there was a major clean up of the car park area, all the stone/clay was removed and the car park was covered with a coat of maintenance. The water issue was sorted out and a general tidy up was carried out. Thanks to all who helped out and we look forward to when the pitches will be in full use later this year.
