U18 Gaelic Football
Oatlands u18’s were handed a tough opening game against a
strong Ard Scoil Ris team. Played in extremely windy
conditions, Oatlands found themselves 9 points down at half
time before producing a magnificent second half performance
to win on a final score of 3-10 to 3-5. The crucial score
came from Man Of the Match Dillon Mulligan, coming up from
wing back to score a superb goal. Jack Memery, Andrew
O’Malley, Jamie Fernandez and Ronan Carney all gave
excellent performances.
Oatlands next opponents were Old Bawn, a team who defeated
Oatlands last year in this competition. Mark Kavanagh gave a
virtuoso performance, scoring 3-3, leading the team to a
7-10 to 0-9 victory. Other good performers on the day were
Jack Doughan (0-4), Padraig Fitzpatrick (1-0), Dan McNamara
(2-0), Jamie Fernandez and Captain Baethan Teague.
The best performance of the year so far was saved for the
semi final clash with Castleknock CC. Man of the Match Jack
Doughan led a magnificent team performance, Oatlands
eventually winning on a score line of 4-8 to 10 points.
Oisin Geoghegan, Mark Hanratty, JJ Shovlin and David
Devereux all gave heroic displays in defence, setting up
countless attacks which Bill O’Carroll (1-3), Jack Memery
(2-0) and Mark Kavanagh (0-3) turned into scores.
Oatlands now have to prepare for the Dublin final at the end
of January.
