Bryansford in sevens heaven

THE Blue September Kilmacud Crokes All-Ireland 7s final was an all-Down affair and Bryansford prevailed after a cracking game to win the title for the fifth time at Glenalbyn.

The winners got off to a dream start as they worked the ball forward from the throw-in and Ciaran Brannigan rammed a low shot to the Castlewellan net with just 15 seconds gone.

Castlewellan came back strongly though and led at half time 1-7 to 1-6, Kevin Duffin’s goal lifting them.
