Iveragh U12 White team are league champions after beating Killorglin 3 - 2 in Killorglin yesterday. The players knew going into this game that a win meant they would be crowned Champions, but in fairness to them they put this out of their heads and warmed up and got ready for the game.
The game was very 50/50 in the opening 10 mins with saves by both Cian Coffey and the Killorglin keeper keeping it at 0 - 0, then in the 11th minute Dylan O Donoghue gained position in midfield he drove a shot towards the top left corner of the goal from 25 yards and the goalie got his hands to it but Iveragh were 1- 0. Great goal!
10 mins later Killorglin took a corner from the left hand side of the field and it ended in the back of the net. What happened after showed the character of this team. Niall O’Connor, Dylan O D, Dylan Bruce, Glen O’Shea grabbed the ball out of the net and ran to kick off straight away.
Within 90 seconds it was 2.1, such is the mentality of the lads. Niall o connor put us ahead. We went 3.1 up in the Second half after another Niall O Connor goal. Niall worked all day for the team and it’s not the first time this season he got a brace of goals or more.
Liam Cronin , Daragh O Connor, Callum Wynton, Aidan Driscoll and John Daniel O Driscoll were outstanding in defence. Cool and organised against a pacy incessant Killorglin forward line.
Our midfielders, Cillian Kelly, Dylan O Donoghue, Niall O Connor , Dylan Bruce and Glen O Shea all worked so hard box to box . Up front Woytek and Rory o Neill kept the Killorglin defence full of problems and both strikers were so close to scoring and they pressed and worked for their team when asked to.
Thanks to Killorglin for a very sporting game and one of the toughest games all season .
We started the year with a 4 -0 away to Kenmare after only one training session then won 6 in a row to go top.
We got a painful humbling at the hands of Killarney Celtic a few weeks ago meaning we had to beat Kenmare and Killorglin to guarantee the league and that’s just what this team did.
The players are a credit to their parents and the club in the way they conducted themselves all season and they thoroughly deserve their title for their 10/10 attitudes and discipline and hard work.
The team would like to thank all the supporters that followed us around the county and washed jerseys, took the money and car pooled.
We’d like to thank Andrew Wynton and Fergal O’Connor for helping us with training.
This team is in the cup next week away in Ballybunion. So more days out to follow. Congrats lads and best of luck as ye progress up the ranks in Iveragh Utd.

U15 Cup Iveragh FC 2 v Park B 0...
This was our 3rd week in a row playing cup competition and once again they passed with flying colours.. We came up against a very resilient Park team who defended in numbers, sometimes having 6 across their back line with 2 always on Ramin.
Iveragh dominated the first half creating 7 or 8 chances but just couldn't get one past a very good goalkeeper and strong defence... Gavin Griffin was running midfield and was first to everything and just set up wave after wave of attacks every time we got it wide we created chances but it just wouldn't go in the net.
Second half was much of the same with Park setting up to counter attack and did create a few chances but Sean Griffin was equal to anything that came at him. Sean has really taken up the mantle in goal for us and turned out to be a fantastic goal keeper as well as centre back..
We finally got the break through on 30 mins after several corners and attempts when Ramin received a ball on the edge of the box and shot low and hard under the keeper – we were finally ahead.! The 2nd followed shortly when Matthew Sullivan crossed a wonderful ball to the back post which Ramin met with a bullet of a header to clinch the game.
This again was a great team display where they created numerous chances and while they weren't going in they just kept piling on the pressure and didn't panic. Well done lads into the next round of the cup for this team..
