Our first-year boys Gaelic football team have been training hard over the past number of months, with players representing Caulry, Cillóige, Millmore Gaels, Maryland/Tang, Maynooth, Moate all whites, St Loman’s, and St Manchen’s.  They participated in a Westmeath coaching and games blitz before Christmas which was very beneficial and gave all players game time.

After Christmas the Br Hubert Cup competition kicked off for all A schools in Leinster. Moate CS were in Group two with Marist Athlone, St Mary’s of Edenderry and St Mel’s of Longford.

We hosted the Marist first on January 16^th. MCS won comfortably on a scoreline of 3-07 to 1-02.

We travelled to Carberry in Kildare on January 24^th to play St Mary’s of Edenderry where we carried our good form into the game and emerged victorious on a score line of 5-06 to 1-04.

Our final group game was on January 31^st and we hosted St Mel’s on our school pitch. MCS were dominant on the day and won with a score line of 5-13 to 2-04.

We qualify for a home quarter final, which will be played after midterm. Opposition still to be confirmed.
