Ahane U12 Hurling League v Monaleen. Phase 2 of the U12 hurling league recommenced last night with the U12's having a home game against our near neighbours Monaleen at Mackey Park.  The opening exchanges were tight with both sides playing some lovely hurling. After a few points by each team, Monaleen found the Ahane net. Ahane responded with 2 goals from quick ball into the full forward line.  At half time, Ahane were ahead by 2-3 to 1-4. The second half resumed with highly committed play from both teams with points and scores for both sides.  The Ahane team scored their third goal but Monaleen stayed in touch and grabbed a late equalising goal to take a share of the spoils on the night with a final score of 3-5 to 2-8. Well done to the players and especially to James O'M who came up from his holidays in Kilkee to play on the night.  The players last evening were Ciaran, Kyle, David, Jamie, James, Paddy, Jack, Cathal, Will, Cian, Tadhg, Darragh, Ryan, Sean, John C, James D, Tony, Harry, James R - well done boys and keep up the daily 20 minute training at home. Thank you to U12 Mentor and Bord na nÓg Chairman Brian O'M for agreeing to referee on the night for this competitive local derby.
