Sunday May 6th

Bunclody AFC 5 Tombrack United 3

Sunday saw the lads travel to Bunclody for a game looking for three points that would have been a major help in their battle against relegation. However, it was not to be their day as the home side raced into a 2-0 lead after just fifteen minutes and although Richie O Hara scored twice to bring the sides back level, Bunclody scored again just before the break to lead 3-2. They enjoyed the better of the second half and led 5-2 when Tombrack's hopes were severely dented when Eoin Carton was sent off for a second yellow card. Tombrack did have the final say when Mick "Savo" Kelly scored late in the game but the lads left Bunclody still deadlocked with New Ross Celtic in the battle against relegation

Women's Divisional Shield Semi Final

Forth Celtic 2 Tombrack United 1

The Women travelled to high flying Forth Celtic to take on the home side in the much delayed Divisional Shield semi final and in a game played in scorching hot sunshine and on a big pitch, Tombrack put in one of their best performances of the season before unluckily bowing out to the Division Two A champions. Tombrack started the game at a furious pace and never allowed the home side to settle and restricted them to long range efforts which Ashling and the defence handled comfortably while also pressing forward with Mary Boland, Shannon and Katie all creating problems for the Forth defence. Disaster struck for Tombrack in the second minute of injury time in the first half when a low shot found its way to the corner of the net

Wexford Football League Division Four A

Tombrack United 1 Cloughbawn AFC 5

The men's second team ended their season this evening as they went down 5-1 to Cloughbawn but John Brownrigg's players had already done enough to secure safety in the division long before this game. Eoghan Murphy scored for Tombrack but it was not enough against a strong Cloughbawn side who took control to run out comfortable winners. At the end of the game, John announced he was standing down as manager, a position he has held for three seasons, gaining two promotions and the club would like to take this opportunity to thank him for his hard work over those years

Schoolboys Under Twelve

Tombrack United 2 Wexford Bohs 0

Our Under Twelve boys finished off their season in fine style, picking up three wins in a row to finish mid-table. Stephen O Toole scored both goals for Tombrack against an understrength Bohs side who had their keeper to thank for keeping the scoreline to just 2-0. Bob was delighted with how his young side rounded off the season and was very proud of their end of season run of form. Well done to Bob, Dave and all his players on a great season

Schoolgirls Under Fourteen

Tombrack United 1 Moyne Rangers 5

The Under Fourteen Schoolgirls hit a blip in their quest for the league title when a strong second half performance from the visitors saw Moyne Rangers come from 1-0 down to go away comfortable 5-1 winners. Zoe Tobin Cosgrave had given Tombrack the lead in a closely contested first half but Moyne put in a strong second half performance to

Youth player Kevin Kenny picked up the Wexford Football League Youth Division Three Player of the Year award for the second year in a row. This well deserved award is voted for by the other clubs in the division and is a great achievement to win it once, but to win it twice at Youth level is a little bit special. Well done to Kevin who enjoyed a great season as he captained the Youth team to the Division Three title and he is also an integral part of the Men's A team squad

Kevin will be presented with his award at the League's presentation night which will be held in the Horse and Hound, Ballinaboola on Friday May 25th

Wexford Football League Division Four A

29-04-2018: Tombrack United 1 Campile United 2

01-05-2018: Ballymurn Celtic 4 Tombrack United 3

Our mens second team played two matches over the past few days and although they collected no points, they put in two competitive performances, especially at home to Campile on Sunday when the visitors clinched promotion courtesy of this win. Savo scored the goal on Sunday and scored twice when the lads travelled to Ballymurn on Tuesday and lost by the odd goal in seven with John Kavanagh also scoring. They play at home to Cloughbawn on Sunday as they work their way towards the end of the season

Wexford Women's League Division Two

29-04-2018: Tombrack United 0 Corach Ramblers 1

Our women played out a closely contested match at home to Corach Ramblers on Sunday and despite enjoying a lot of possession, the women could not break down a hard working Corach defence and an excellent goalkeeper. Overall the performance from Tombrack was quite competent but a slight break in concentration allowed Corach in to score with fifteen minutes to go. Our women's best chance came when a long range effort from Mary Martin was tipped over the crossbar by the keeper. May will be a busy month for the Women as they play a Shield semi final, FAI Intermediate Cup game, Divisional Cup Final, as well as their final league match

Squad: Ashling Kavanagh, Mary Martin, Breda Cushen, Tia Byrne, Eimear Whelan (Sharon Walsh), Sarah Merrigan, Mary Boland, Kelli Maguire, Katie O Toole (Amie Walsh), Ciara Ryan, Leanne Kenny (Shauna McGovern)

Schoolgirls Under Eighteen Seven a Side Shield Semi Final

30-04-2018: Tombrack United 3 Bree United 1 aet

Our Under Eighteen girls booked their place in the final of the Under Eighteen Shield when they overcame a very determined effort from Bree United with Tombrack coming from a goal behind to win in extra time. Bree took a first half lead but some determined play by Tombrack saw them bring the game to extra time when Becky Connaughton scored a cracker of a goal. No further goals saw the game go to extra time where player of the match, Katie O Toole scored before Becky scored her second to wrap up the match. Well done to the girls on this great win and they now await the winners of St Leonards and New Ross Town in the final
