U16's
The U16's under their new manager Eddie Lillis got their championship campaign off to a flying start with a convincing win over Burgess in the first round of the U16B championship. This match was played in blustery and wet conditions on Saturday evening last in Kilcolman. Conditions were very difficult with a strong swirling wind but this did not deter the teams as they battled on bravely.

Goals from Tara Lillis (K), Amy Quinlisk and Gillian McSherry ensured victory for Kilruane in their first outing of the year. The next fixtures in this group is a home match against Ballina on Monday 13th and away to St. Cronan's on Monday 20th April.
