The Clann minor team travelled to Kiltoom
to take on the home side in the opening game of the 2012 league. Ruadhri Mc Manus opened the Clann
account with a fine point, but Clann 0-3 to 0-1 down
within 10 minutes Clann took control for five minutes
and were a point to the god following scores from Ultan
Harney, Ruadhri Mc Manus and Martin Flannery. The
hosts rallied before half time to lead 0-6 to 0-4 at the break.
A brace of points from Ruadhri Mc Manus brought
parity, but Brigids went to the front with another
point midway through the second period. Once again the Clann
lads surged on with points from Ultan Harney, Eoin Forde 2, Ruadhri Mc Manus
and Mark Shine, these points were enough for Clann to
record a deserved win. Best for Clann were Dylan Colgan, Ritchie Mc Manus, Paddy Harney, Darragh
