Games reports
Junior Bs look strong
Junior D Championship Rosmini Gaels 1-5 St Sylvester’s 2-12 The junior football team were also in good scoring form with a very good championship victory over Rosmini. With Derek Roche at centre back and Shay Keogh in the middle we certainly had experience on the field and with Tricky O'Donnell on form at corner forward we kept the scoring ticking over.
Senior match abondened at Rush due to rain
AFL1 St Maurs 1-06 St Sylvesters 0-10 Match Abandoned . . .Downpour started when the ball was thrown in and ended five minutes after the match was abandoned mid second half. We had just scraped our way into the lead over a very game Maurs
Another impressive win for Inters
AFL3 St Sylvesters 3-09 St Finbarrs 4-03 Our Intermediate footballers rounded off a very productive week with a hard fought 3pt win over a very strong Naomh Fionnbarra side on Saturday evening. A win that has us right in contention, only 2 points behind table toppers Clontarf, at the half way stage in the competition.
Inter footballers back to winning ways
AFL3 Naomh Olaf 0-11 St. Sylvester's 2-11 After losing our last two league games the pressure was on the get back to winning ways in the league. When Mark Finnerty hit the net with 30 seconds on the clock the stage was set for our lads to produce one of their best performances of the season so far.

U12 Football – 3 Wins and a good training session
The U12 footballers continued their good form with 3 wins in their recent round of games. The A team faced off against a very strong Clontarf team who were just behind us in 3rd place in the league and always give us problems but on this occasion we put in a hardworking and skilful display to run out 7-08 to 2-09 winners. We are now second in Division 1 and playing some good football.

Congrats to our Minor Footballer and Hurler, Paul McBride who finished 4th in the East of Ireland Golf Championship against the top amateurs in the country, a mighty achievement and another great Malahide Golfer for sure.
Second draw puts girls out of Senior Championship
Ladies Senior Championship St Sylvesters 0-10 St Brigids 1-07 A valiant effort by the girls getting their second draw in their first ever senior championship campaign but it wasn't enough to qualify for the knockouts. There was no doubt that Brigids were a top class senior team but our girls stayed with them to the end with the lead changing hands a few times in the final quarter.
Inters lose in a ding dong battle
AFL3 St Sylvesters 0-12 Castlenock 2-12 Cracking game in pitch 2 tonight saw the Inters lose to a strong Castlenock but definitely not without a fight. We hit the bar and drew a great save from the opposing keeper in the middle of the second half that thwarted our comeback. Cotsie will hopefully send a report.
Two big wins for Hurlers
AHL3 St Sylvesters 3-18 St Judes 0-11 Played Saturday - St Sylvesters 1-12 Thos Davis 1-11 played Wednesday. Wednesdays win over Davis at Broomfield was a a superb comeback after being down by 7 points at one stage. Gareth brought a bit of pep into the half back line and Nigel finished with a super goal and a cheeky point. Saturday we travelled with a very tight panel but everyone contributed to a great win, even Hillary Cluxton Murray-Hession scoring from 100 yards and Enda scored a goal coming off the bench.

St Sylvester’s GAA club notes
AFL1 St Sylvester’s 0-17 O’Tooles 1-5 A steady stream of good scores and a very mean defence gave us a comfortable lead going into the final quarter. Even manager, Gabriel Bannigan should have been pleased with this performance. Saturday’s game against St Maur’s was abandoned just after we scored to lead the game in the second half.
St Sylvester’s GAA club notes 9th June
AHL3 St Sylvester’s 2-10 Parnells 2-19 A severely depleted intermediate hurling team could not provide the answers for a very sharp Parnells outfit. Barry Kiely scored a goal and a point early in the second half to provide some hope but Parnell’s kept the scoreboard ticking over more consistently.
