Under 16 National Cup Semi Final Tie May 8th 2011

Cobh Ramblers v Killarney Celtic March 20th 2011

Next Sunday May 8th is another very important day in the current Schoolboys Football Season for the Springfield Ramblers Club as our Under 16 Premier League team are taking part in the Semi Final of the SFAI U16 National Cup Competition. The team has an away tie against St Francis FC of Dublin at John Hyland Park, Baldonnel at 12 noon.

The team has performed admirably in the games prior to this round with securing wins in some difficult ties in five previous rounds. The boys emerged from the Cork side of the draw with a 2-0 victory over Rockmount. They then beat Carrigtwohill on a 4-0 score line in the round of 64, had a brilliant 2-0 victory in a difficult away tie against Clonmel Town in the round of 32 and at the last 16 stage they had a 2-1 victory against Killarney Celtic in a tough encounter at home. They then overcame a very strong Ballyheane side from Mayo in the Quarter Final at the VEC grounds on a 3-1 score line.

The Under 16 team under coaches Niall Abbot, Mossie O’Mahony and Frank Collins are in a challenging position near the top of the U16 Premier League table. The Club wishes the very best of luck to the lads in this very important game. There will be a supporter’s bus travelling to the game and all inquiries should be made to Niall Abbott on 0871279773.
