A summary of the FAI Schools National Cup Champions 2023/24
Tuesday, October 22, 2024
The FAI Schools Post Primary Schools National Cup competitions came to a conclusion earlier this month with the final two of the 16 National Cup competitions finalised.
The First Year ‘B’ Boys and Girls National Cup Finals were the last Cups to conclude as the competitions were deferred to September.
FAI Schools organise National Cups in the boys and girls section, with 8 divisions apiece catering for small and large schools tailored for Under 20, 19, 17, 15 and 14 age groups.
Each provincial branch will also offer an extensive local League structure co-ordinated by teachers voluntarily.
The series of competitions provide football to over 600 post primary schools nationwide with almost 80,000 students participating annually.
Galway won 5 of the 8 girls titles on offer as well as Sligo, Leitrim and Tipperary schools claiming the other honours. An impressive campaign for Presentation College, Athenry managing to capture a double in the Junior and Minor divisions (in the large schools). Similarly Glenamaddy Community School won the Minor ‘B’ and First Year ‘B’ National silverware (in the small schools).
While in the boys section, there were two National titles apiece for three Counties with Donegal, Dublin and Mayo all picking up top spot while Cork outfit St. Peter’s also made the headlines. Limerick’s Hazelwood College were new to the scene claiming their first National trophy clinching the First Year ‘B’ Boys Cup a few weeks ago.

Mollie Noone (28), Abbie Duffy (35+2) Ciara Walsh (54)

It was Ciara WALSH’s goal on 54 minutes that sparked a massive change in the Athlone crew as her low drive managed to sneak past Gilligan’s bottom corner to take it to within reach for the Leinster Champions as they trailed 2-1.
It was an exciting encounter which nearly went to the wire as Athlone’s late comeback in the final ten minutes made for a nail-biting conclusion to this season’s Cup decider.

Aoibhin Doherty (26)

Heartbreak for Coláiste Mhuire as they lost out to St. Clare’s CS, Manorhamilton in the Senior ‘B’ Girls National Cup Final at the end of January in the same venue.
It’s now a second National football title for the Sligo outfit. The girls from Coola Post Primary School have emulated the 2022 success of the boys as they captured the Junior ‘B’ Boys Cup following a 3-2 victory over Scoil Ruáin, Killanaule to claim a first National title for the School. No doubt there are many more National titles in the offing for these young starlets.
Minor ‘B’ Cup
Glenamaddy Community School 4-0 Midleton College
Ruby McGuire (13, 46) Ali O’Toole (22, 54)
GLENAMADDY COMMUNITY SCHOOL were crowned FAI Schools Minor ‘B’ Girls National Cup Champions following their stunning victory over Midleton College in Fairview Rangers FC on Wednesday, April 24).

Their goal-scoring prowess continued as McGuire and O’Toole both netted braces in this victory with Midleton keeper Ellie O’Leary pulling off several saves late on to keep the Galway crew at bay.
It brings to 17 the number of goals scored in their last 3 outings, conceding just once to Pobalscoil Ghaoth Dobhair in the National semi-final. An outstanding record in this competition.
Minor Cup
Presentation College, Athenry 3-0 Kingswood Community College
Abbie Duffy (33, 39 pen, 41)
PRESENTATION COLLEGE, ATHENRY captured the FAI Schools Minor Girls National Cup following a super second half display to overpower Leinster stars Kingswood Community College in Athlone Town AFC on Wednesday, May 8.
This was the second title for Presentation College this season as they captured the Junior Girls National Cup last month at the same venue to complete an impressive double.
There was nothing to separate the two sides as it was scoreless at half time with very little on target but a pulsating second half for the Connacht side saw them explode into life. Under 15 Schools’ International Abbie DUFFY was the hero of the ‘half-hour’ as her hat-trick guaranteed top spot for Athenry.
The first of the trio of goals came just three minutes into the second half with a beauty from Duffy to see past a busy Sophie Farrell between the posts for the Tallaght school.
Duffy’s second was six minutes later as she converted from the penalty spot. The third goal came on 41 minutes when she produced a delightful free kick from 25 yards out to see the ball go over Farrell’s head and in to capture the title.

New Ross keeper Abbie Myler pulled off a brilliant save to deny the troublesome Tilly Carroll two minutes into the second period.

The score-line didn’t reflect an entertaining encounter which saw the Connacht Champions one up at the break as Chloe GORDON slotted home five minutes from the break.

It was a cagey opening forty five with neither side making major inroads.
Belvedere’s Billy Canny forced Stephen McNulty into a great save midway through the first half. While six minutes later, it was Shaunie Bradley who had a header on target but Christian Loftus palmed it away to safety. All coming from a beautifully weighted free kick from Conor McDaid.
The industrious Mark Isong was causing concern but had no real threat on the Donegal goal.
The deadlock was broken twenty minutes into the second period when Conor Graham played a delightful ball into Shaunie BRADLEY who slotted home the opener.
The Buncrana lead was doubled eight minutes later as Darragh Coyle was taken down inside the box and Captain Conor GRAHAM converted the resulting penalty to make it 2-0.
Belvedere just couldn’t impress on the game as their recent form in the provincial stages eluded them. Fiachra Sheridan made several changes with a quarter of an hour remaining but they couldn’t break down the Buncrana defence.

St. Peter’s CS, Passage West 5-2 Glenamaddy CS
Liam Quinn (48, 83), Rema Mbakwe (56, 74, 90+4 pen) Eoin Morgan (73), John O’Brien (89)

All seven goals came in the second half as both Ross Hegarty and Eduardo Bessone were in superb form to keep a clean sheet in the first forty-five.
The breakthrough came three minutes into the second half as Kristian O’Callaghan played in Liam QUINN to slot home a peach of an opener.
Their tally was doubled six minutes later when Darragh Lehane played a super ball for Kristian O’Callaghan to head on target, but Hegarty saved well however it dropped perfectly for Rema MBAKWE to smash in.
Glenamaddy responded with a quarter of an hour left when Eoin Collins forced Bessone into a wonderful stop, but Eoin MORGAN was on hand to grab a vital goal to bring the game to 2-1.
Seconds later, Passage West extended their two-goal cushion as O’Callaghan fed Rema Mbakwe on the edge of the box. The talisman was exceptionally quick on his feet to round the defender and finally beat the diving keeper for MBAKWE’s second and St. Peter’s third. A real sucker punch for the Galway side.
A fourth was added for St. Peter’s with seven minutes remaining as initial shots from Mbakwe and Farrell were saved brilliantly by Hegarty, but the ball came out to Liam QUINN who drove it to the back of the net for his second of the day.
Glenamaddy were awarded a corner in the 89th minute with substitute John O’BRIEN nodding in to bring it to 4-2.
However, Passage West were to go five up when Rema MBAKWE was fouled in the box and dispatched the subsequent penalty to secure his hat-trick.
Tom Ticher Cup
Rice College, Westport 0-1 Portmarnock CS
Cian Wilson (4)
A solitary goal was enough to see Portmarnock Community School stun defending Champions Rice College, Westport in Athlone Town AFC on Wednesday, April 17 to take the Tom Ticher National Cup.
There was very little between the sides throughout the 80 minutes as Rice College piled on the pressure late on but Kyle Grainger was immense for the Portmarnock scholars between the posts.
The only goal of the game came within four minutes as Cian WILSON’S strike from 20 yards out seemed to deceive Michael McDonnell in the Westport goal as the ball nestled into the bottom corner.
Junior ‘B’ Cup
Pobalscoil Ghaoth Dobhair 5-1 Gaelcholáiste Reachrann, Domhnach Míde
Brian Mac Pháidín (10 pen, 17), Jordi Gribben (48, 80+2), Fionn Ó Cnáimhsi (80+4) Odhran Ó Conaill (56)

A first half brace courtesy of the inform Brian Mac Pháidín saw him convert from the penalty spot with ten minutes on the clock and his second was superbly taken seven minutes later to give the Ulster side a two goal advantage at half-time.
Jordi Gribben scored a third on 48 minutes.
A disappointing day for Gaelcholáiste Reachrann who lost their Captain Scott Ó Casaide Mac Siulaí due to injury shortly after the third goal was conceded.
However, the Dublin side grabbed one back just before the hour mark with a lovely finish from Odhran Ó Connaill cutting in the right wing.
Two late goals in added time was to slightly flatter the score-line with Gribben netting a fourth in two minutes added time while substitute Fionn Ó Cnáimhsí popped up for a fifth two minutes later.

The Mayo crew were two up inside the first 11 minutes when Tony CUNNINGHAM slotted past the talented Timurs Rjaguzovs after ten minutes.

His second was just after the re-start when in headed in perfectly from a high ball over the top.

It was 47 minutes in when Ryan Cunningham forced another super save from the Grange keeper while Rocco Lawlor hit the post at the other end.

Matthew Daly (36), Ruairi Molloy (72) Jamie Blake (52)
ST. GERALD’S COLLEGE, CASTLEBAR defeated debutants Willow Park Senior School from Blackrock in extra-time to claim the FAI Schools First Year Boys National Cup in Athlone Town AFC on Thursday, May 23.
Matthew DALY opened the scoring six minutes into the second half to give St. Gerald’s the lead. A mistake in the Blackrock defence saw Daly steal the ball inside the box and drill an audacious shot under the diving Ben Walls.
Blackrock were impressive going forward as Paddy Mullaney, Sam Cruz, Thomas Kilty and Ronan McDonagh linked up well at times. But St. Gerald’s had Blackrock talisman’s Arya Golchin well marshalled throughout proceedings.
Peter Quinlan used his bench effectively as Blake and Horne were introduced and the deadly duo linked up well for the elusive equaliser eight minutes from time. Jamie BLAKE latched onto an excellent through ball from Archie Horne for the latter to finish superbly and bring the game to extra-time.
Ben Walls pulled off some exceptional saves early in the first period of added time when he denied Keating, Mulroy, Reilly and Moran in quick succession with Jack Fitzgerald on the line to clear the danger for the Leinster Champions.
The match winner came two minutes into the second period of extra-time as a well worked manoeuvre saw St. Gerald’s convert in fine fashion. Eddie Moran snatched the ball on the right flank and played it into the path of Ruairi Molloy who pushed it forward to Cillian Keating. A quick one-two, saw MULROY claim the pass again and he slotted it past the impressive Ben Walls for a worthy match winner

NEWBIES HAZELWOOD COLLEGE, DROMCOLLOGHER captured their first National title with a splendid victory over Ulster kingpins Pobalscoil Ghaoth Dobhair in Longford Town on Wednesday last (October 2).
A goal in each half was enough for the Limerick side to lift the Cup. Michéal O’KELLY opened the scoring with only five minutes on the clock.
Despite Hazelwood’s dominant performance, we thought the game may have gone to extra-time as Adam Mac Giolla Bhríde forced the Limerick keeper into an incredible save when the shot-stopper palmed the ball over the upright with four minutes to go.
However Hazelwood’s Tiernan O’FLYNN was fouled inside the box two minutes later and he duly converted the spot kick to ensure a great win for the Munster stars.
