Under 16s get the year off with a win

Caulry V Garrycastle

Caulry U16's got the season off to a good start with a win over neighbours Garrycastle. Caulry playing with a strong wind, scored freely in the first half. Good team work and accurate shooting resulted in eight Caulry players getting on the scoreboard by half time.
