The Downs 3:13 Clan Gael 1:7
On Saturday last in Kinnegad The Downs secured the county under 14 title with their beat performance of the year. The Downs defended with great determination to prevent early Clan Gael scores and made best use of their own possession to go into an early lead. The Downs continued to dominate the scoring and held a 7 point lead at halftime. The Downs ensured victory in the 15 minutes after the restart by holding Clan Gael scoreless and adding to their own score. Well done to the girls and to Kevin and Peter who put in a great years work and finished with the ultimate reward. Thanks must also go to large support from The Downs who gave the team every encouragement and to the parents who supported the team throughout the year and provided transport to all the games.

Under 12 County Final The Downs 5:6 Garrycastle 4:0
On Saturday in terrible condition for football in Kinnegad the under 12 girls secured the county title. The Downs got off to a dream start and had 3 goals on the scoreboard before Garrycastle replied, by halftime Garrycastle had reduced the lead to 0:5. Garrycastle registered a goal soon after the restart but The Downs were able to reply with some excellent points to maintain their advantage and build on their lead to emerge deserved winners. The Sharon Smyth memorial cup was presented to the team captains Emma and Niamh by Geraldine Giles to the applause of the large support from The Downs who attended despite the poor conditions.
The win was a deserved reward for all the hard work the players put in throughout the year and for their willingness to constantly improve their skills. Thanks to everyone who helped prepare the food in the clubhouse afterwards it was greatly appreciated to get the tea and hot food after the cold and rain. We also thank the parents who attended the games in large numbers throughout the year, provided transport and were always willing to help out. Team
