Saturday Night Soccer !!!

This Saturday night sees a return to floodlit football as Boyle Celtic resume their league campaign at home to Ballymote. Kick off is at the earlier time of 7.30pm
Please come down and support the lads.
Sean Kerins men are still in a good position in the league with both City Utd. and Carbury having to travel to Boyle. These fixtures are likely to decide the league one way or the other.

Street League a Roaring Success

The street league organised by Gary Goldrick was a brilliant success. I think all participants and spectators had an enjoyable day. Gary deserves a big thank you from us all for his efforts.
We were fed and watered all day by Sandra McCrann who put in an extremely long day. The food was lovely and the cup of tea always a treat in cold weather. Sandra was assisted throughout by Cyril Calpin and Sean Brennan. When the caterers arrived they were met by a potential crisis of a burst water pipe. Seanie Brennan soon had that under control and the day was saved. Well done all.
Congrats to the eventual winners of the tournament "Mockmoyne".
