The 2017 U13 league commenced in August for the 34 lads registered at this age group. Due to our large numbers we had two teams compete in different league divisions. After the success of the under 12’s winning Division 2 of the County league last year we were pitched in the top tier 1A Division. T e boys recorded great wins against Claremorris, Ballintubber, Knockmore, and Castlebar Mitchels to qualify for a County semi Final against Moy Davitts. Th is game was played in St. Brendan’s Sports ground, Kilmeena, on Saturday the 7th October where the Kilmeena lads fought back from a point down at half time to winning by 3 - 09 to 1 - 08. The County Final against our near neighbours Westport was played on Saturday the 14th October in Mulvey Park Castlebar. After a well fought battle Westport emerged the winners but the Kilmeena lads can be immensely proud of their achievements all year. The second U13 team competed in division 4B with games against Ballina Stephenites (B), Kiltimagh (B), Breaff y (B), Parke (B) and Westport(C) teams. Thanks to all who came out to support the games or help the lads in any way during the year. Your participation really does make a diff erence. Particular thanks to Michael Gavin, Mike Slattery, Robert Coady and Dermot Tiernan.
