Castlelack Athletic U12 overcame Ardfield Mountaineers to capture the U12 Schoolboys Premier League title in Brinny. Athletic lost only once in the league all season and made sure of the title with a terrific display to see off Premier League runners-up, Ardfield.

Liam O’Keefe and Noah Collins efforts handed Castlelack a 2-0 interval lead. The Mountaineers fought back impressively via Joshua Borowski and Oisín Cullinane strikes before a second Liam O’Keefe won it for a delighted Castlelack.

Castlelack Athletic: J Ryan, P Carey, G Evans, C Lucot, L O’Keefe, N Collins, E Hurley, J Quinn, C O’Shea, J O’Callaghan, C Murphy, R Hickey, L Bemelmans.

Daniel Brady scored four times as Riverside Athletic sealed the U13 Schoolboys League One title away to Togher Celtic.

The Carbery Park club proved too strong for Togher, thanks in part to Brady’s four-goal contribution, winning 6-1 to cement top spot in the division with a game to spare. That result marked Atheltic’s seventh win in as many outings with Daragh Aherne (2) also getting on the newly crowned champions scoresheet.

Riverside Athletic: J McCarthy, L Baxendale, C O’Farrell, K Crowley, A Hurley, F Buston, C Crowley, A O’Callaghan, C Murray, O O’Donovan (captain), A O’Callaghan, O Collins, S Buston.
