Venue: Meadowbank Arena Magherafelt

Date: 15th February 2014

Brid Og’s U12s fielded in the prestigious Ulster provincial hurling at the Meadowbank Arena and it was reassuring to see an increase in player numbers compared to recent blitzes and included Niall, Owen and Pearse who had already played 6 matches at the North Antrim League in Ballymena.

Our opponents today were Saint Enda’s B, Bredagh A and B, Saint Paul’s and Rossa B. Only goals counted in this blitz and the players were told to strike the sliotar low. At the end of the 5 games we have recorded 5 victories scoring an incredible 25 goals in total and credit to our defence with 4 clean sheets, Saint Paul’s being the only team to hit the back of our net. During the games all the players positions were rotated and we scored some great goals from distant pocs but highlight of the game had to be the back pass from Sean to Brendan in the Rossa game!

Thanks

I would like to thank Kevin for organising the games in this wonderful arena for gaelic sports. Thanks to our parents for travelling and offering the players lifts. Finally well done to all the Brid Og hurlers who played brilliantly today
