A rainy Sunday evening was the setting for our 2nd championship game, where we were drawn against St Senan’s GAA club, who have been aiming for Senior status for the last several years.

The match started with a very strong start from St Senan’s which Crecora matched with their speed and fitness.
Both teams were very quickly in their stride with a more or less equal exchange of points in the first half.

St Senan’s put together a set piece play near the end of the first half which left the score at 1-6 to 4 points.
In response Crecora Manister scored an equally good goal leaving the score at the half time whistle at 1-6 to 1-4.

St Senan’s started fast and strong in the second half racking up the points and scoring their second goal against the run of play.
Our lads scored two further points but St Senan’s continued to score points at every opportunity leaving the final score at 1-20 to 1-6 in favour of St Senan’s.
