Aghada 3-18 Fermoy 2-1.             17/5/24

A Comprehensive victory for our boys last Friday evening in a game played in good conditions in Fermoy. From the off we were determined and we were attacking the Fermoy backline through strong play from Jack Kelleher, Eoin Kirrane and in midfield Cormac Cashman and Finbar Alcock. In our half backline we got good scores from David Murphy, Jack and Bobby O’ Riordan. Half time score was  Aghada 1-11 Fermoy 1-0. Second half despite Fermoy getting a early goal we played all the hurling and kept the score board ticking over. We ran out good winners and this group is developing, bigger tests wait for us but for now we have got off to a strong start 2 wins from 2. Best for Aghada Jack Kelleher, Finbar Alcock, David Murphy, Cormac Cashman, Cathal Lowney and Marcus O’Loughlin. Jake O’ Sullivan got a bang on the hand in the first half but hopefully won’t keep him out for too long.
