The mixed team took part in the Credit Union 2 teacher competition in Barraduff on Friday, first game was against Glenflesk which was a game of a very high standard, Shrone seemed to be the stronger side having most of the possession but were profligate ( a very fancy word for wasteful!) in front of goals and Glenflesk were very much in this game at half time Shrone leading by 4 points. Glenflesk kicked two good points and had a goal chance tipped over the bar to leave a single point between the teams but then Shrone steadied up and converted two goal chances to see out the game. 3- 1 to 3 points
Hollymount had a mostly girls team who were recently crowned Sci na scol champions in Cork, a serious test for any team with ambitions on winning a County final. An all girls team lined out against Hollymount and a serious game of football broke out, sides level at half time. With 2 minutes to go Hollymount went a point up and the Shrone girls were tiring from a busy week of school tours, semi finals and the previous game. The emergency signal went out and the three boys from 5th class subbed on to manufacture a score and get Shrone the win to top the group. Shrone will now play in the semi final of this competition against Fybough NS. in two weeks time.
