Moynalvey captured the Division 3 South Under 12 league with a well deserved victory over a gallant Na Fianna team. Moynalvey started well and eased into an early four point lead after a point from David McLoughlin and a goal from Cillian O’Sullivan. However, Na Fianna battled back into the game and it took some fine defending from Brian Harnan and John Hegarty along with some excellent goalkeeping from David Curran to restrict them to five points at half time. While Moynalvey finished the half strongly with a point from Darragh Branigan and a magnificent 1 – 5 from O’Sullivan leaving Moynalvey leading at half time on a scoreline of 2 – 7 to 0- 5.

Na Fianna again fought hard in the second half, but with Eamon Walsh and captain Padraic Harnan beginning to dominate the midfield area and strong defending by Jack Lawless, Chris O’Malley and Fearghal McCabe they found it hard to get scores. While at the other end a third goal from O’Sullivan and a fourth from Eric Ryan added to a point from John Francis Martin rounded off the scoring for Moynalvey. A great team performance in a very sporting game.
