Junior B footballers played Oola on Tue Aug 26th
in the first round of the east JBFC. Bally started slowly and gave away
possession easily but still managed to take an early lead with points from John
Stack and Mike Wilkinson, Denis Stack added a well taken goal and we added a
few more points before Oola responded with a point from a 45. We scored a well
worked team goal shortly into the second half finished low and hard to the back
of the net by Denis Stack. Conor Grene and Michael Wilksinson added points from
play which put us comfortably in the lead early in the second half. Oola scored
a goal and put us under pressure and brought a few great saves out of Kieran
McCarthy but Christoper Coughlan, Sean Browne and Hugh Leonard were working
hard and kept plenty of ball going up to our forwards to keep us ahead. John
and Denis Stack were in fine form and they added more points. We finished
strongly, John Casey and Paul Martin scored great points from play to give us
the perfect start to the championship. Full time score in Oola: Ballybricken
