Annacurra have yet to pick up any points from the opening 2 league games having been beaten by St Pats and now Tinahely by a slim 2 point margin in each case. Annacurra rued a lot of missed chances and hit the goal frame 4 times and will feel if they took half of their chances they would of ran out winners on the day. It is still early on in the season and performances can only get better but there is a lot of improvement needed for the up and coming championship.

On Friday 13th, Annacurra took to the field against the Senior County runners up, St Pats. Its was a cold, misty evening for a game but both teams took to the field with great excitement seeing as this was their opening game of the league. Both teams were missing key players due to county commitments and injuries and the standard of football was poor compared to the end of last year but there was no lack of commitment with many hard hitting challenges throughout the game. Pats lead at half time with a scoreline of 1-5 to Annacurra’s 1-2. In the 2nd half St Pats dominated the first 15 minutes but the remainder of the game was controlled by Annacurra. The final score was St Pats 1-9, Annacurra 2-4. Annacurra will take a lot of positives from this game seeing as they put it up to a strong Pats team and if they took their chances it could of been Annacurra walking away with their first 2 league points of the league campaign.

Scorers on the day were: Mick O Brien 2 goals, Clive Horan (1),Frank Clune(1), Shane O Keeffe(1), Patrick Moules(1).

The Annacurra Race Night will be held on the 14th March in The Saltee.

To buy a horse it will cost €10 and €50 to sponsor a race. Each player in the club will have a sponsorship card if you wish to buy a horse.

All cards and money are to be returned by next Thursday 12th so it would be wise to sponsor a horse before this. All support is greatly appreciated.

The funds from the Race Night will go back into the club for the development of the pitch.
