Longford U14s crowned B Championship winners after impressive final victory

Ballymahon Forgney Gaels U14 panel captured the U14 B Championship title recently following a comprehensive victory over Killoe Óg at Glennon Brothers Pearse Park, with the scoreboard at the final whistle reading 1-22 to 4-5.

The success comes after several close efforts at the grade in recent years, with the latest win marking a significant achievement for the young players.

The club previously enjoyed success at U14 level in the ‘A’ Championship in 1992, before claiming the County Championship as Shamrock Gaels in 2017.

Those successes went on to provide an important springboard for adult honours in 2002 and 2022 respectively, and the club will now be hoping the latest U14 success can provide a similar foundation for the players’ future.

Special congratulations have been extended to the team’s coaches, who played an important role in developing the skills that were on display during the championship victory.

The club also thanked the players’ parents for their dedication and support throughout their children’s development as footballers.

Attention will now turn to watching the young panel progress in the years ahead.
