On The Playing Field……..

Last weekend saw mixed results for Riverstown FC sides. On Friday night, Riverstown FC’s Under 12 side had the honour of playing under lights at St.Colmans Park against Springfield Ramblers. Despite a very spirited performance, some sloppy defending cost them the game as they went down 4 – 1.

Both Under 15 sides were in action last weekend with the Premier side going down 3 – 1 away to Fermoy while the Division 4 side staged a remarkable comeback from being 3 – 0 down away to Strand United to win the game 4 – 6.

The Under 13 side were at home to Midleton A in the Cup and were comfortable 3 – 1 winners.

In the Under 11 Cup our first team came from 0 – 4 down at the break to bring it back to 3 – 4 at home against Carrigaline. When you consider that they are joint top of the Premier Division, then this was a great performance by the lads. The goal scorers were Tristan O’Leary, Shane O’Driscoll and Luke McGonagle.

Our Under 12 Girls have booked themselves a place in the Semi-Finals of the Evening Echo Cup after a hard fought 1 – 0 victory over Avondale United at the Community Pitch. The draw for the semi’s take place on Thursday night.

Next weekend is a quiet one with only two games down for decision on Sunday. In the Under 16 Cup, we are at home to Rockmount who are just a point above us in Division 1, so this game should be a cracker. Our Under 14’s travel to Togher to take on Greenwood A. A win here could push the lads up to second place in the League.

Senior Women

The Senior side are back training for the new season on Wednesday nights at 7.30 at the Glen Resource Centre. Due to a number of girls being away for the summer we are looking for new players. Previous football experience would be a help but it is not essential. Anybody from 16 years upwards is eligible to play Senior soccer. So if you are interested or know anybody who is, then please contact us.
