Under 21 v Bornacoola
The Under 21s were in hard luck when they were beaten by Bornacoola by the narrowest of margins in Ballinaglera on Monday afternoon.

Once again, as has happened so often this year with Melvin Gaels teams at all levels, the chances were created but they were not taken.

Playing with the wind in the first half, the Gaels failed to capitalize on the chances created and went in leading by two points, which was never enough.

There was some great football played by both teams but Bornacoola just edged it in the end.

Well done to Joe and all the lads.

Under 21 B Champions
On Saturday afternoon in Pairc Sean there were great celebrations when the Gaels Under 21s defeated North Leitrim neighbours, Glenfarne/Kiltyclogher in the Under 21 B Championship Final.

This was a very well contested final with both sides playing some great football. Despite all the rain, the pitch was in excellent condition, and both these teams served up a very entertaining game, particularly for the neutrals among the crowd.

The Gaels deserved their win but were pushed all the way by a very good and determined Glenfarne/Kiltyclogher team.

A goal in each half from Glenfarne/Kiltyclogher meant that the Gaels had to fight all the way.

A well worked goal, with a great finish from Packie Hill, for the Gaels midway through the second half eased the tension and put the Gaels in the driving seat. There were some great performances and many contenders for man of the match in the Gaels team, but congratulations to James Bredin who was very deserving of the award.

Congratulations to Gareth, David and Joe and all the lads.

Congratulations as well to Shane Ryan who celebrated his 18th Birthday on Saturday- a nice present for Shane, he also put in a great performance.

Last Game of The Year for the Seniors
The Seniors played their final game of the League for 2009 when they took on Kiltubrid on Saturday evening last in Melvin Park.

The Kiltubrid team are in the running for a place in the League Final and were they showed more hunger than the Gaels. Kiltubrid won on a scoreline of 2-8 to 1-8.

The Gaels played some good football at times but two goals from Kiltubrid in the first half, meant that they were always playing catch-up.

All in all it was a disappointing League campaign for the Gaels in 2009.

All we can do is look forward to 2010.
