A bad weekend at the office for Ballingarry with just one team recording a win from the six in action. The under 12 A side were always the better side as goals from Nathan Clancy (2) and Cathal O’Keeffe (2) saw them beat Broadford United 4-0.
No such fare for the B team as they were well beaten in Pallas by 8 goals to no score. The under 8s too shipped a big defeat going under 6-0 at NCW Rovers.
The youth team became the latest of some famous Kerry refereeing going out in Listowel 4-3 in extra time with the winner coming in the last minute of play. Ballingarry found themselves 3 down with a man sent off and also at the end of a penalty. But a massive come back them draw level with goals from Shane Doherty, Damien O’Donoghue and Kevin Forde but however no effort will ever be enough from a visit to Kerry.
On Sunday the B team gave a fine performance in losing to Premier side Shannonside with Gary Cronin scoring Ballingarrys consolation while in NCW the A team suffered a 5-0 drubbing at the hands of the Premier champions.
