Aisling
0 – 1 Granville
Shane O'Hanlon's reign as
Granville manager got the perfect start on Sunday morning
when they secured an unlikely win over a fancied Aisling
Annacotty. One goal separated the sides at the end of 90
minutes and it came form Ollie Kenny when he poked home in
the box from a Philip Clancy free kick. Some stout defending
followed by Granville with new signings Stuart Byrnes and
Thomas Hehir showing up well. Aisling had to field without a
number of regular starters but that is not to take from the
impressive win by our A team.
Ronan Keane, Gary Power, Stephen Benn, Ollie
Kenny, Billy Tynan, Niall Doran, Philip Clancy,
Thomas Hehir, Neil McGourty, Conor Croke, Enda Cregan Stuart
Byrnes, Joseph Skrip.

New format in place for the coming season
It was announced at the LDSL Annual General
meeting on Friday last that a new format will be introduced
for the 2008/09 season. This new format will see the playing
season broken into two sections. The u12, 14, 16 grades will
commence playing in late August, and will continue to its
completion by the middle of December. S.F.A.I National cup
games will be played during this period. At this stage local
fixtures will be cancelled until late January and will
resume with the playing of the u11,u13,u15 grades. When
midweek football resumes in late March the u12,u14,u16 local
cups will be played.
SFAI National Cups
The following changes were introduced for
this seasons National cup competitions. From round one an
open draw in the region stages of the cups will be in
operation. Clubs will have only one chance to play their
home game. If a teams home ground is unplayable and unless
they can come up with an alternative ground on the day the
game will automatically revert to their opponents ground.
The first four regional rounds of the competition must be
completed by December.
