Clara GAA Notes

Under 21 Football Championship


Clara played Shannon Gaels on Saturday in Clara in the first round of the U21 Football Championship. Playing with a bit of a wind in the first half Clara produced some fine football and aided by goals from Darren Fleming and Carl Stewart led by 2-09 to 0-01 at half time.
The pace of the game slowed a bit in the second half and in the end Clara ran out winners on a score line of 3-15 to 1-05. We now go onto the quarter final where we will play Tullamore Óg.
The Clara team was Mark Fallon, Dermot Doolan, Martin Fleming, Gavin Carroll, George Robbins, Carl Stewart (1-0), Alan Gavin, Willy Fleming, Callum Stewart (0-1), David Fleming (0-5, 1f), David Falsey (0-2), Steven Buckley, Darren Fleming (1-1), Luke Kelly (1-3), Luke Dignam (0-3, 1f).
Subs – Colin Gavin for S. Buckley, Leon Taylor for Carl Stewart, Johnny Hanamy for Darren Fleming and Evan Dignam for L. Dignam.
