Miltown 5-10 Clarecastle 3-9
Miltown U14s got their 2014 Division 2 championship campaign off to a winning start with a hard fought victory over a visiting Clarecastle side on Monday.In what was definitely a game of two halves Miltown showed great tenacity and belief to overturn a seven point defecit at half time.Even in the first half when the scoreline wasn't looking too healthy Miltown's workrate and tackling were immense and this ensured that Clarecastle were still in reach at the start of the second half.
The second thirty minutes saw Miltown's midfield and forwards began to get on top and this soon became visible on the scoreboard with Clarecastle under increasing pressure and finding it difficult to get out of their own half.

Division 5 League
Miltown 0-10 Eire Og 4-7
Miltown's rollercoaster season in division 5 continued with defeat to last years Junior A champions Eire Og in Miltown on Sunday.Despite having the majority of possession and chances in the first half Miltown found scores very hard to come by, only the boot of the impressive Gary Egan with 6 points ensured Miltown held a two point lead at half time after an Eire Og goal late in the half.
The second half proved to be a tough one for Miltown who conceded 3-5.In reply Miltown could only muster 3 points despite again having the majority of possession.A missed penalty and the sending off of Gerard Malone did little to help Miltowns chances and Eire Og ran out nine point winners to inflict a second defeat on the home side.
