Congratulations to all our teams and well done to every player on a brilliant season. 💙

🏆 ALL IRELAND CHAMPIONS 🏆

What a game and what a team!

Despite finding themselves 2-0 down against the run of play with a massive task ahead, this team showed incredible talent, character, work ethic and determination to find another gear when it mattered most.

The boys battled back to level the game and, on another day, could have won it in normal time. Instead, it went to penalties where every single player held their nerve — scoring all 5 spot kicks to bring the cup home to Ballymena 🩵

⚽ Ballymena 2 – 2 Shelbourne
Goals:
Tom W ⚽️
Jake ⚽️

Penalty Scorers:
Henry ⚽️
Tom McK ⚽️
Ruairi M ⚽️
Frank ⚽️
Jake ⚽️

A huge shoutout to the Shelbourne keeper who had an outstanding game, and massive congratulations to our captain Harry on picking up Player of the Match 👏

We couldn’t be prouder of this group of players. They are a credit to themselves, their families and the club 🩵

A special thank you also to FCS Services Ltd, and owners Simon Gage & John Lorimer, for their incredibly generous contribution towards the cost of the trip to Mullingar. The support from local businesses makes opportunities like this possible and is hugely appreciated by all the players, coaches and parents.
