Senior Team Get First Win

Our senior side got their first three points of the season last night with a comprehensive 4-1 win over a fancied Kilmore Celtic side at the Oscar Traynor Complex with goals from Paddy Moore (2) Gavin O’Neill and Sam Lenihan.

A home fixture is next up on Wednesday night (30th) against Dublin Bus in St Aidans at 8pm in what will be a very busy season with various cup competitions to be played for – the first of which will be the first round of the FAI Intermediate Cup against Drumcondra FC.

They began the season last Friday with a narrow 1-2 defeat to Castleknock Celtic in horrendous conditions for football at St Aidans.

Matt Gannon’s Saturday side start their season this Monday August 28th with an away game in Balbriggan against Glebe North at 8pm.

Registration day for the new season of our Little Saints Coaching Academy is on September 9th from 3pm to 4pm at our Clubhouse at Larkhill Road / Crestfield Whitehall D09 HY42

Our Academy is widely regarded as one of the best in the country as an introduction to the game of soccer for boys and girls from 4 to 8 years of age.

Our aim is to provide the very best football coaching for young children. Many players who have started their football journey at this basic level here with us have gone on to be household names in Irish football while others have played the game at a level they felt comfortable with – but this is where it all starts.

Each child’s enjoyment and the fun they have at our sessions is what we have built our reputation on and has been vital to our success over the years.

All sessions are devised by our head coaches overseen by a qualified lead-coach along with other coaches and assisted by parents.

The goal at this early stage is to introduce children to the basic concepts of football. We also try to help the children develop their social skills, interact with other children and most importantly, have fun!

We try to help each child learn the basics of the game while at the same time ensuring every player enjoys each session with activities to keep them interested with plenty of time on the ball and individual coaching, as well as interacting with other children with whom they will become friends.
