U12 BOYS A hosted Mervue yesterday in Newvillage. OAFC battled hard throughout and Paddy took the game into his own hands in the second half, driving past the defence and smashing the ball in. A nervy last 5 minutes saw OAFC concede right at the end. Final score 2-1. Player of the match to Paddy for his work rate and super goal to get us level. Just one game left for this super talented squad! ⚽️ It wasn't to be for U14 GIRLS on a hot afternoon today in the Cup Semi-final vs a Championship team. OAFC were amazing in the first half and equal to Mervue. Even with our defence and keeper under pressure, it was 0-0 at half-time. Within 10 minutes of the second half, Mervue scored their first goal. However, we picked ourselves up, and were unlucky not to score from some lovely play. Momentum was building but a needed water break broke the play, and Mervue went on to score three more goals. Our girls gave it everything with the final result not reflecting their performance. It is the end of the season for U14 GIRLS, but we are so proud of them, how they came together, and what they achieved especially in the second half of the season. Well done to these girls and their coaches! ... See MoreSee Less

⚽️ U14 BOYS A had a much needed win against Mervue Utd in Newvillage this evening. A 1-0 lead through Dara T was never enough as Mervue threw everything at us. The second goal came when Mark got a touch on a cross, but Mervue replied soon after. MOTM today was our Captain Luke. He remained calm, leading the lads well. Next up is the League Cup final vs Loughrea Sunday week in Eamonn Deacy Park. ⚽️ U16 BOYS B travelled to Kinvara yesterday and continued on with another fantastic win. OAFC controlled the game from start to finish. A great win for the boys but credit to Kinvara who never gave up and kept playing football right till the end. ... See MoreSee Less
An outstanding second half performance from U12 GIRLS on Sunday to make an impressive comeback vs St Bernards. A chaotic start saw OAFC trailing 1-0 after conceding a penalty. However, the girls transformed themselves after a half-time discussion and Ayla swiftly levelled the score with an impressive volley. Orla stepped out of the goal for a change and netted a hat-trick. The girls capped it off with goals from Arianna and Ivy. Final score St Bernards 1 - 6 OAFC. Well done girls and coaches! ... See MoreSee Less

U16 BOYS B hosted Tuam Celtic today in Newvillage and controlled the game from start to finish. Two nil up at half-time after a brace of goals from Tom. The second half started the same way and soon came goals from Michael and Ryan. Tuam Celtic pulled one back before Michael was taken down in the box, and Tom stepped up to round off his hat-trick. Michael added two more, rounding off a great performance from all the lads today. Well done everyone! ... See MoreSee Less
Strong finish to the season for U12 BOYS B, securing promotion in second place, only behind an invincible Cregmore team. Goals from all ends of the pitch this morning as the boys took on MacDara - two for the strikers, two for the midfielders and one for John L in defence. A very impressive win! ⚽️ Performance of the season from U12 BOYS C in Newvillage this morning. A tight first half until Paddy broke the deadlock with a fine strike. The second half brought another goal for Paddy, one for Niall and an OG forced by great work from Conor C. Enzo and Hashim shared duties in goal, both putting in flawless performances with multiple fine saves. MOTM award to Paddy for a fine brace, but this was an outstanding team effort with the full match-day squad all contributing. One more game left for these boys this season as they aim to end the season on a high! Well done to all the Players and Coaches on another great Saturday of football! ... See MoreSee Less

The girls gave it everything, and a couple of classy, unstoppable goals from Craughwell was the only difference. We couldn't have asked for any more from the girls and we are so proud of them! This squad will wrap up the season next week and are already looking forward to next year! Thanks to everyone for supporting the girls tonight! ... See MoreSee Less
Amazing team of girls. Incredible coaches, your dedication,encouragement, and enjoyment to bring to the girls week on week is fantastic. Thank you all so much.
Congratulations to U13 BOYS A who topped their Division last evening to win the League Title. The boys played a great game of football in Newvillage coming out 5-0 winners vs Kinvara Utd. Two goals from Niall with one each from James, Donnacha and Evan. A hard working bunch who only conceded 12 goals all season and put in a real squad effort all year! Huge Thanks to Chris, Matthew and Johnny who coached these boys this season! ... See MoreSee Less
U12 BOYS B go second on the table (with one game to go) after a strong 4-2 performance vs their Headford opponents. Dannan K's persistence up front paid off when he forced a defensive error to open his season account. Elliott C returned from injury to also open his account to put us 2 up at the break. Donal then finished expertly to spark a pitch invasion from his pals and classmates from the U12A squad who supported the boys after their own training. James C put us 4 up before a nervy few final mins when Moyne Villa scored a couple to add some drama. MOTM went to Dannan who hit the junction of post and bar with an unreal long distance freekick. His smile coming off the pitch after a job well done could light up the dark! A few ice pops and a good evening all round. Well done to the players and coaches! ... See MoreSee Less
U12 GIRLS were determined to give League leaders Colga a fight yesterday evening and took the lead in the first few minutes with a superb strike from Ayla. OAFC held all the possession but a quick break saw Colga score. The girls fought on and Arianna found the back of the net just before half-time leaving us leading 2-1 at the break. In the second half Colga came out on the front foot and grabbed another goal. The girls tried to sustain the pressure but in the end Colga were too strong and edged us out. Overall one of our best team performances and it showed that these girls can compete with the top teams. Well done girls and coaches! ... See MoreSee Less

Fantastic 4-0 win for U14 BOYS A vs Craughwell yesterday in Newvillage. On the score sheet was Devon, Mark, Conor and another thunderbolt from Jamesey Mac from outside the box topping it off nicely.

U13 BOYS A drew 1-1 with St Bernard’s in Abbeyknockmoy. OAFC took the lead through a great freekick from Loughlan mid-way through the second half. Despite a number of chances to extend the lead, OAFC didn’t take them and St Bernard’s scored in the last minute on the counter to level it up. ⚽️ Closely fought contest between U13 BOYS B and Kilshanvey with OAFC narrowly losing out 2-1. Kilshanvey opened the scoring midway through the first half from the penalty spot and quickly doubled their lead. OAFC responded immediately when Mark got on the end of a well-delivered cross and found the net from inside the box after brilliant wing play down the right. OAFC dominated possession in the second half but couldn't find the equaliser their 2nd half performance deserved. A huge thank you to all our players for their unwavering commitment and teamwork throughout the season. Despite results not going our way, they never let it affect their effort or spirit. A big shoutout to all the U12 players who stepped up to help out this season. They have shown they are more than ready to compete in their own division next year with particular mention to U12 goalkeeper Ethan, who played today and gave a commanding performance. Finally, a big thank you to Declan, Mike and Ger for their dedication and hard work coaching the team this season. ⚽ U15 BOYS Premier: OAFC 1-1 Mervue United. After a comprehensive 4-0 win earlier in the week away to Mervue, the visitors came for revenge and struck first early in the first half against the run of play. OAFC battled hard and were denied several times with some great saves from the keeper. OAFC started the second half brightly and continued to chase the lead, being rewarded for their efforts when Matthew L was taken down in the box and Nicky F cooly slotted it home to earn a point. Great results and performances from the boys over the past week to finish the season strong 💪 👏 #OAFC Well done to all the Players and Coaches on another great Saturday of football! ...
