Congrats to Kevin & Roisin

Kevin Mullen, our successful Reserves team manager, has the most important match of his life next week when he marries Roisin Young in foreign climes. Many congratulations to them and everyone at the Club offers our very best wishes for a long and happy future together.

On signing this contract, Kevin has paid the ultimate price and foregoes the Frank Kennedy Memorial Cup Final that his team have now qualified for - he will be on a sunny beach with his bride by his side as the lads try to win Kevin's first senior cup!!

Home Farm visit

Home Farm FC's U15s were staying in the area and were keen to arrange a friendly against an underage Boyle Celtic team. Combining players from our U18s/U16s/U14s, we were delighted to field a strong panel and more than delighted with the outcome - a 4nil victory for Boyle over the Dublin team.

Well done to Christy Grehan for organising the playing side of things and many thanks to Sandra McCrann who played a pivotal role in organising the friendly and arranging the fantastic nibbles for after the match.

U14s bow out in League Semi-Final

Commiserations to our U14s squad who lost their league semi-final 2-0 last night. They went a goal down and battled bravely to get back in it but lost a second goal in the dying minutes. Well done to all involved, including the management team of Joe Magee and Frank Colohan on a great season.

Boyle Celtic committee meeting cancelled

The Committee meeting called for tomorrow night (Tue 5th) has been cancelled as a mark of respect to John Dennedy, RIP.

John Dennedy RIP

Our sincere condolences to the family and friends of John Dennedy who passed away suddenly over the weekend. A very good friend and supporter of Boyle Celtic, John was involved for a long time bringing teams to away matches, cheering and encouraging from the sidelines and on occasion taking the flag. He was also a manager of one of our teams and greatly endeared himself to all who met him and he will be sadly missed. May he rest in peace. There will be a minute's silence for John before the Connacht Cup Quarter-Final against Athenry this Sunday (10th Apr) at 2pm.
