Junior A: We played Peregrines on Tuesday 27th  in Marlay park, 12th game in our 15 game league. Both Peregrines and BSJ have being unlucky in the league with some narrow defeats and wins left behind.  This game allowed either side who was successful abit of breathing space from threat of relegation.

BSJ started the game with a slight breeze and took advantage of the weather element. There was work man like performance through the team. BSJ lead at half time, with BSJ captain Kevin McCabe encouraging his players to keep focus.

In the second half  BSJ never relented their work rate with or without the ball. Some excellent performance from Sean Dunne , Cian Hallinan and Johnny Gillick.
