A very busy period for the club continues this weekend with the u13s taking pride of place as they head to Dublin on Saturday for a quarter final tie with St Kevins Boys in the SFAI National Cup. The boys are no strangers to the capital having defeated St Josephs last time out and we wish Michael Boyle and his team all the best for the game which is at Stella Maris FC at 230pm.
Last weekend saw our Youths make the journey to Cork in their national quarter final but came out on the wrong end of a 3-1 defeat. Ruairi Friel scored for Rovers. The boys won 4 tough games to get to this stage including two at national level and represented the club with distinction throughout the competition. They are back in Colin Breslin action this Saturday when they make the considerably shorter journey to Ramelton to play Swilly Rovers. Kickoff is at 130pm.
The seniors are back in action on Sunday when they play Fanad Utd at Leckview in the league. Kick off is at 2pm. We also now know that the FAI intermediate Cup semi final will be a trip to Cork to play Ringmahon Rangers on Sunday April 3rd.
The draw for the FAI Senior cup was made this week with club representatives present in Abbotstown. We are also away in that one having been drawn against Portmarnock. That game will be played on April 10th.
Other results from last weekend saw our u12s Rovers draw 0-0 with Glenea while our u14s Crusaders lost 5-0 to Kilmacrennan Celtic.Our u14s United lost 2-0 to Mulroy.
