Round two of the Munster Junior football took place in New Inn today between CTI Clonmel and St Ailbes Tipperary Town. The game started well with both sides having a fair share of possession before CTI kicked their first score – a point from Sean Cagney. This was followed up with a goal from Cian Power after some good play out the field from Oisín Forristal and Darragh Landers. After this CTI kicked it up a gear and rallied a number of points from Oisín Forristal (0-3, 2 frees) and Sean Cagney (0-1). the next period of play had St Ailbes go down the pitch and get their only score of the game with a point from a free. The gulf between the teams was clear when David Cagney went down the field and got CTI’s second goal of the game. Oisín Forristal followed this up with two more points before Cian Power got our final score of the half and his second goal.

The second half saw CTI make a number of changes with the substitutes making a handsome contribution. Straight from the off it was clear that they wanted to make an impression. None more so than Bradley Buck who was involved in a number of passages of play before taking his chance and finishing to the roof of the net for our first score of the second half. Another player who was keen to make a mark was Shane Taylor who scored two goals which sandwiched an Oisín Forristal point. Our final score of the half came from some brilliant work from John Molloy who took a shot which the keeper parried away before Shane Taylor finished to the net for his second half hatrick. Overall there was a gulf between the two teams but CTI had some excellent performances all over the field.

CTI Clonmel 8-15 Coláiste Fionnchua Mitchelstown 1-7

They often say that you learn more in defeat than in victory and last weeks Senior Munster Semi-Final defeat really paid dividends today.  Our junior footballers took to the field with a point to prove and that they certainly did. Mitchelstown got the better start to the game with a couple of attacks but only converted one chance which was from a free, this was the only time they would have the lead in the game as CTI Clonmel took a stranglehold of the game and never let go. CTI Clonmel’s opening score came from the boot of one of the youngest players on the field Michael Prendergast. This was followed by a rally of scored from Michael O’Sullivan (2-0) and Oisín Forristal (0-3). During this period our forwards were extremly dominant and had a large number of goal chances, some of which were taken by Michael Prendergast, Jake Maunsell, Sean Cagney and Cian Power. Between the goals we had points scored by Jake Maunsell, Oisín Forristal (0-2), David Cagney, Sean Kenny and Sean Cagney.

With a comprehensive lead at half time we made a number of changes for the second half. The players who came on had a point to prove and showed very well. We opened the scoring with a point from Keenan Kerton – our very own Thomas Ó Sé! This was followed by 1-2 from Luca Dennehy who showed very well when he was moved to full forward. Mitchelstown got into the game a bit more in this half and scored 1-2 during their period of dominance. When CTI got back on top we had Keenan Kerton contribute to the score sheet again with another point from wing back before John Molloy got our last goal of the day. The game finished with a point from the ever energetic Sean Cagney.

There were stellar performances all over the pitch and some excellent team play displayed throughout. This victory was just what the lads needed after the heart wrenching defeat last week.

C.T.I. Clonmel Vrs North Presentation Cork

3.13 to 1.01

On a cold winter’s morning our senior ladies football team made the short commute to Monroe to take on the North Presentation Cork in a Munster Quarter Final. Our ladies started off at a blistering pace with Ava Collins and Ciara Nic Réamainn taking control of the midfield and Aoibhinn Chaoinleáin adding a couple of early scores. Through hard work and determination, C.T.I. gained an early lead and kept the opposition scoreless for the first half. There was some superb score taking to be seen, with Ava Collins, Charlotte Concannon and Megan Fahey all proving accurate throughout. North Presentation enjoyed early chances in the second half but thanks to the great defending of Saskia Cuddy, Robyn Hill and Roisín McGrath they were unable to reap any rewards.

This year our TY students are getting some valuable lessons in the world of business, on Wednesday they made the long trip to the RDS in Dublin where they sold their business products as part of the Foróige Entrepreneur Programme. The group had a wide variety of products on sale such as bottle lamps, cable savers, sports products, magnets and hampers. They learnt some valuable lessons in business on the day such as how to set up a stand, entice customers and most importantly how to sell!

The TY’s will have a market in the school next Thursday night and Friday morning. All parents are welcome to attend on Thursday night.
