Our U9 team made the trip to St Conleths park on Sunday to play in the half time match in the National League fixture between Kildare and Donegal. A total of 29 children made the trip and although all couldn't take the field they were happy to support their team mates on the day. All children thoroughly enjoyed their match and also got to see their heros on the field as well. Afterwards it was off to McDonalds for chips and drinks and they all couldn't wait to get to school the next day to tell all their friends about their day. Many thanks to Kildare Gaa for helping us organise the kids day and also to Ballykelly Gfc who laid on a coach for all the players and family members who couldn't make the journey themselves
03/03/2010 Keogh Cup
The senior lads made it two wins from two played in the Keogh Cupwhen they saw off Straffan in a hard fought battle. In what as their first competitive match in the new Stephen O Rourke Memorial park they played some sublime football early on and built up a lead only to see Straffan make a late charge and leave just the minimum between the sides at the final whistle. They now go on to meet Killcullen in their final group match hoping to make to latter stages of the competition.

01/03/2010 Underage Boys
Our Minor team were defeated on Sunday morning in the third round of the minor league. In what was a very sporting match by both sides it was Monasterevin who got out of the blocks early and built up a lead. Despite improving greatly in the second half Ballykelly couldn't reel them back in. Both sides are now level on points in the league so its still all to play for. The u16s lost their opening round of the league on Saturday to St Oliver Plunkets.
