In a fine game of football , the young Mitchells u16 team opened their league campaign with a three point win over a talented Roberstown side. Darragh Moore was top scorer for the Mitchells with an impressive return of 3-2. He was ably assisted in the scoring stakes by Oisin Holland Doyle, Bobby Joe Brennan and Eoin Wall who all chipped in with two points each. The first half was a tight affair with both defences on top but Moores goals opened a gap for the home side that they were never to loose. The second half was a more open affair with Castlemitchell playing the early ball into their forwards which was rewarded with some fine scores. A late rally by Roberstown was held off by the Mitchells defence where Corey Brennan in Goal, Dylan Brennan at full back and David Moore played well. In all a fine start to the league for the Mitchell's , this win was well deserved and with some players on the way back , the panel is sure to be strengthened. Well done to all and the best of luck to Roberstown for the remainder of the season.
