U14Bs Win Feile Football Final
A great team performance saw Cuala U14B's win their Féle final against St Vincents in Parnell Park by a scoreline 2-03 to 0-06. A 2nd half penalty strike by Cuala's half forward Conor Tiernan proved the decisive score. Vincents piled on the pressure after this but only managed to score a point finding it very hard to battle through a solid defence and outstanding goalie. Well done to this great bunch of lads who have trained extremely hard over the years and have finally got their just rewards.

Cuala U14's win Nemo Tournament (Again)
Cuala's U 14A football team won the Mick O'Brien Memorial Tournament which was hosted by Nemo Rangers in Cork and played over the weekend 16/17 February, 2008. This is the second year in a row that Cuala have won this competition. The competition included teams from Kerry, Gaelteacht and Austin Stacks, Corks', Nemo Rangers and Macroom and St. Vincents and Cuala from Dublin.

Cuala's first game on Saturday was against Cork opponents Macroom which they won 4-14 to 2-01. The second game that afternoon was against Kerry opponents Austin Stacks which resulted in another comprehensive victory of 6-12 to 1-02. These scorelines do not reflect the highly competitive nature of these games, but the oppositions brought out the best out of the Cuala team who played some of their best football ever. These outstanding results meant that Cuala reached Sundays Tournament final against Kerry opponents Gaelteacht.

In the Sunday final Cuala produced another outstanding performance winning by a scoreline of 4-13 to 0-04. Gaelteacht were a very good footballing team and displayed some great all round skills but were no match for the Cuala boys. The Cup was presented to Cuala's captain Cillian O'Farrell by Cork football hero Colin Corkery and Stephen O'Brien, son of the late Mick O'Brien who the competition has been named after. Cuala's Colm Begley was also awarded player of the tournament for his outstanding performance in the overall competition.

A great weekend was had by all the team, mentors and loyal band of supporters who would like to thank Nemo Rangers for their hospitality.

U14B's Hit the Heights in Carlingford
The U14Bs enjoyed an action- packed weekend away at Carlingford Lough last weekend. Activities included raft-building, kayaking, night line through the woods blind-folded - topped off by high ropes which even the mentors attempted. The fear on Ciaran Irwin's face as he reached the top of a 30 ft pole was a sight to behold (Ciaran insists it was a look of determination). A big thank you to mentors Barry Tiernan, Kevin Kennedy, Ciaran Irwin and John Ryan. See for yourself in the Cuala Gallery . . .

2008 U13s Do It Again
Not since the time of Gregory XIII have we seen someone who has such command of the calendar. Just how John McKeown organised Saturday's Under 13 Presentations (celebrating their sucess in the Shield) to coincide with the very day they landed the League, would leave Gallileo himself in awe. And yet, that's exactly what happened. So it was some party back at Áras Cuala when the Kingdom's very own Michael Spillane dispensed marginally more medals that he has received himself. Well done to the boys, their mentors and supporters.
