Senior Football League: Bridge of to a Winning Start
Shannonbridge 2-6
Gracefield 0-10
Shannonbridge got their competitive season of to a winning start when they traveled to a Gusty Gracfield on Sunday last to take on the local side.. Gracefield gained the upper hand early on by scoring three points. However Jason Kelly got the Bridge back on track with a very well taken goal following a solo run.
The Bridge then settled to gain control of the midfield area and further scores came from possession gathered in the centre. Midway through the second half Gracefield seemed to be
growing in confidence until Dave Corbett buried the Ball for a well taken goal to set the Bridge up for an away victory.
Shannonbridge will however be concerned about the amount of possession that was given away in the first half and the easy scoring opportunities that were missed. Shannonbridge will now take on Edenderry in the Senior League on Saturday next at 3 pm in Shannonbridge a good home support will be expected.
