Following
a 12-4 defeat of Artane Braumont away 2 weeks ago, the
return game presented the opportunity for the
Castleknock Celtic U8 team to experiment with some
variations in the line up. The team played a defensive
game with 3 at the back as opposed to their normal solid
two. The trio of Caoimhe Lynam, Paul Lambert, and
Cathal Steels proved unbeatable and no goals were
conceded, which was the aim of the exercise. At the
other end, Thomas Stevens showed that he had not lost
his outfield skills by putting away the first goal.after
6 minutes. With his speed, turn of pace and skill on
the ball, Ben Traynor got a brace, putting CCFC
comfortably ahead. Artane Beaumont only threathened
once after the break putting a shot inches away from the
right post. The match yielded a 3 – 0 victory for
Castleknock Celtic.
DDSL 8E1s: Tony Molloy travelled with his
troops Dundrum and took on the local Balally Celtic
team, and came home with full points after a very
convincing win, where all Castleknock Celtic's players
got on the scoreboard.

Fabulouse draw at home to league leaders McKelvey
Celtic, which leaves Castleknock in a strong position to
challenge for honours this season. 2-2. DDSL 15B:
Celtic overwhelm Liffey Pearse in 4 goal rout despite
being reduced to 10 players through injuries. This
was a victory for fitness and focus over profligacy and
a lack of discipline. In fairness, Liffey had the
bulk of possession in the first half, but yet they went
in at half time 1-0 down to an opportunist strike from
James O'Mahony. The second half started much the
same, but it was again Celtic who struck first after the
break. This time it was Gerard Buckley who strode in to
make it 2-0. James O'Mahony then popped up at the
far post to finish off a splendid move which saw Paddy
Waters deliver the perfect cross from the right hand
side. Paddy himself sewed things up to leave the home
side looking ever so comfortable. But in truth, Aidan
Water's team had to work very hard and this they do with
100% commitment. And it was this dedication to the cause
that has seen them seal two victories in successive
weeks despite being short a man. They look forward to
being at full strength in the next week or so, when they
can expect to continue their league challenge.
They are in 3rd spot with 3 games in hand, well
positioned as they enter the final stages of the league
campaign. 4-0. Picture gallery

Domo Martin's squad left it late to put this home game
against Knocklyon beyond doubt. Ridwan Ademwale
got Celtic off the mark, as he continues his fine run of
form. Gerry Troy got Celtic's other 2 to leave

McGowan. 3-1. NDSL 15B
