U18 Division 1 League
Macroom and Kinsale met in division 1 league match on Tuesday 12th March at the Castle Grounds. Both sides were missing a few players through injury but served up a very exciting match considering conditions. Kinsale were off the mark first with a fine point and quickly reeled off 2 more points before Macroom got a point. A Mark Condon goal helped Macroom settle however some sloppy play all over the field left Kinsale back into the game leaving the score at half time Macroom 2.2 to Kinsale 1.7.
Kinsale were better at holding the ball and not giving away possession in the second half as they kicked 3 unanswered points before Macroom got a goal through Kuba. With the game heading towards the last 10 minutes Kinsale stretched their lead out further ensuring a good start to the league.
Macroom will have to dust themselves down for a meeting with local rivals Kilmurry in a few weeks time. Full Time Macroom 4.04 Kinsale 3.12.

U-14 Premier 1
Ballinora v Macroom U-14 Premier 1 League
Macroom travelled to Ballinora for their first league match of the year - both teams stepping up to P1, Ballinora having won P2 last year. Macroom were knocked out in the semi final last year by the narrowest of margins so there was a hunger to beat the champions.
A strong cross wind favoured Macroom in the first half and they led 0-3 to 0-5 at the break with superb scores from Ryan Brophy and Dylan O'Shea.
The second half started very competitively before Macroom pushed on and opened a healthy lead cemented by two goals by Dylan O'Shea and a superb point from range by Cayden Dundon and another by Conor Angland. Ballinora battled but Macroom defended well and dominated the closing stages. Ballinora did get a consolation goal and a point in the final two minutes but the result was never in doubt.
