Kildangan u12s travelled to Suncroft this evening in round 2 of the u12 summer league 

We were missing 5/6 of the regular starting team due to holidays.

We knew we had a huge task ahead of us against newly promoted Suncroft in a 13 aside game.

The game didn't disappoint. Absolute cracker of a game between two evenly matched teams.

Superb goalkeeping by Leon kept Kildangan in the game and excellent defending & blocking from Aidan at full back. While Sean, Jack & Abigail picked up a lot of breaking ball in defence 

Ollie helped out our midfielders, Sam & Lucy, as Ollie put in a brilliant performance and supplied the forwards with great passes.

Young Conor Hogan worked hard in corner forward and was unlucky not to convert a score. 

Both Tadhg and Conor Gilroy tried their best up front but Suncroft were able to get the big tackles in at key moments. Our vital goals were scored by Emily & Cameron.

With no subs on a warm evening, Suncroft had the upper hand. They were able to hold on and come away with the win. Only one point in the difference 
 
Kildangan can be very proud of themselves. Especially a number of players, including; Ollie, Emily & Leon, but Cameron Kavanagh led the forwards from the start & produced a player of match performance.
