BUSY FIXTURES LIST
A busy weekend of fixtures is in prospect for Buccaneers with attractive competitive fixtures for our Seconds and U-20’s. First up is the visit of Connemara to Dubarry Park for a Bank of Ireland Connacht Junior 1A League match which takes place, unusually, on a Saturday afternoon. Kick-off is 2.30 p.m. The Blacks lie in mid-table while Buccs will be striving for their first win.
The U-20’s make the short trip to Galway on Sunday where they square up to Galwegians in the J.P.Fanagan Leinster League. This Premier 2 clash between two Connacht clubs kicks off in Crowley Park at 2.30 p.m. Both teams won in Dublin in the opening round and, while Wegians won when the teams met in the Connacht League, the Athlonians will look forward to giving a stronger account of themselves this time around.
Buccs U-17s ‘Yellow’ squad are away to Ballinasloe in the Connacht League on Sunday with a 12 noon showdown for this derby. The U-15s ‘Yellow’ team are also away for a Connacht League Division 2 game facing Gort at 2.30 p.m. on Saturday. Meanwhile, the U-15s ‘Black’ side take on Corinthians in Division 1 at home on Saturday, kick-off 2.30 p.m.
Both U-14s teams are also in Connacht League action with the ‘Black’ squad home to Sligo while the ‘Yellow’ side travel to Ballinasloe. Both matches are on Saturday with 1.30 p.m. kick-offs.
Girls teams also have league games with the U-18 squad entertaining Gort/Monivea at Dubarry Park while the U-16s travel to Sligo. Both fixtures are scheduled for 12 noon kick-offs on Saturday.
A Girls Blitz is pencilled for Sunday morning for our U-8, U-10 and U-12 players so it looks like the pitch booking system will be under pressure this weekend!
