Clann na Banna's dominance at midfield allowed them to move the ball forward for a number of well taken scores which included seven first half goals.

A number of positional switches early in the second half led to a tighter contest but the Clann forwards put on a fine display of shooting with some well taken points.

In the end a comfortable victory for the U16 team but there will be tougher assignments this season, none more so than the visit of Longstone to Cottage Parkthis Thursday evening (throw in 7pm).

The Under 16 management would like to welcome a number of the U14 players into the panel for the remainder of the season. Michael Mallon, Michael Loughlin, Eoin Monagan and Shane Campbell all made the step up to U16 football and all looked more than comfortable playing against older players.

Clann na Banna team: Jack Kearns; Richard Amrstrong, Thomas Carlisle, Michael Mallon; Colm McKeown, Christopher Ryan, James Burns; James O'Keefe, Paul McAleenan, Shane Murray, Connor Lenaghan, Joseph Reynolds, Colin Brady, Liam McGarry, Nathan Andrews. Subs - Michael Loughlin, Eoin Monaghan, Shane Campbell.
