Ladies
Commiserations to the ladies 3rds who battled so hard but were unfortunately relegated on Saturday. They had gone into the game v Pembroke (who are aiming for promotion), with a strong squad and on the back of a few good recent results. The team gave it their all with Mandy Bools pulling off some great saves to keep the score at 0-0 at half time. Indeed the best chance of the half fell to Three Rock but the ball bounced awkwardly over Becky Dawsons stick to deny her a far post goal. Unfortunately as their closest rivals had unexpectedly won the previous week, nothing short of a win would suffice and the final score sealed their fate. The girls, and Maura have worked so hard throughout the season. The effort to keep them up in recent weeks has been a club one, so thanks to all those that helped and played so many extra games.

In other results the 2nds and 4ths also lost. The 2nds had a strong defense but were unable to capatalise on chances up front and fell to a 4-1 loss to Nass. The 4ths game saw the return of some of the vets Orla Coyle and Orla McKeown to league action but unfortunately the Genesis side proved too strong as they won 5-1.They have a chance to survive in their division should they win their last game, making it a tense end to the season!

The 1sts game scheduled for Monday has been postponed due to a frozen pitch. They play Alex on Wednesday at 8pm in a game brought forward from the 23rd of March. Once played, all ladies sides will just have the one game left for this season.

Mens
The mens 3rds beat North Kildare 4-3 in a tight game in division 5. YMCA sit ahead of them in the table but our 3rds have 2 games in hand and are 4 points behind. Top of the table is a likely result if they keep up their fantastic form!

The 4ths lost out 2-1 to Railway away, while the 5ths had a narrow 1-0 win over North Kildare. While the 5ths have a Friday evening refix at 7pm at home, the 2nds-4ths have the bank holiday off before returning to action.
