The first heat of the annual Cumann na mBunscol 5-a-side for primary schools was held today in Loughview Sports Centre in Dungannon . A total of 6 local schools entered teams for this qualifying heat, which produced a tremendously high level of skill and sportsmanship from all involved.
- Roan St. Patrick's Eglish
- St. Mary's Aughnacloy
- St. Patrick's Dungannon
- St. John's Moy
- St. Mary's Cabragh
- Edendork Primary School
After a very competitive first series of games the very gallant Edendork and Aughnacloy lads bowed out.
The scene was now set for the semi-finals with a strong team from St. John's PS Moy powering past a determined St. Patrick's Dungannon.
The second semi-final was also keenly contested, with the Roan St.Patricks PS boys outlasting St. Mary's Cabragh in a tremendous battle.
The level of expectation and anticipation was high for the final. The game itself lived up to all pre-match expectations. Both teams played some tremendous football and displayed a full-blooded effort.
St. John's Moy eventually overcame the Eglish lads to qualify for the county finals.
Our thanks to top Tyrone referee, Marty Devlin, for his expert officiating, and to DUY for the use of their excellent facilities.
