It was another bumper weekend of Championship action for Syls with our senior, intermediate, junior and juvenile sides all in the thick of it.

Senior Men
At Parnell Park, 🔵 Syls senior footballers faced a huge challenge against Kilmacud Crokes. Despite a spirited performance and some well-taken scores, Syls fell short with Crokes showing their firepower to take the points, 2-23 to 1-14.

Intermediate Men
In Broomfield on Saturday night, 🔵 Syls intermediate side battled hard but came up against a strong St Judes outfit. The visitors took control in the second half and won out 3-15 to 2-7.

Junior Men
Plenty of action across our junior ranks:

Junior B (our 4th team) travelled to Ballyogan and came away 🟢 with a fine victory over Geraldine P Moran’s, 3-15 to 0-17. Goals from Jack Brady, Dylan O’Rourke and Paul Downey proved the difference.

Junior C (our 5th team) edged a thriller at home against Man O’War 🟢, 1-9 to 1-8, with Callum Smith bagging the decisive goal. Brilliant day all round for our 4ths and 5ths!

Under 16 Division 1 girls got their championship campaign up and running in the Castle this afternoon 🟢. A good performance in tricky conditions with the girls’ work rate really on the money from the off. They ran out impressive winners, 7-9 to 3-6, against a strong Ballinteer St Johns side.
