West Mayo Primary Schools' Final
Breaffy - 2-12
In a sun-drenched, picturesque Breaffy G.A.A pitch last Sunday (March 16, 2003 ) Breaffy recorded a marvellous win in the West Mayo Primary Schools' Final, their first win since 1992. The rubble and debris beside the pitch signalled the commencement of the club's exciting new development but perhaps even more important for the club was the manner and style of this victory by a group of very talented young footballers.
Breaffy Team:, James Caulfield, Shane Conway, Ryan Monahan, John Daly, Colm Kelly, Joe Corless, David Gavin (0-1), Aidan O'Shea (1-3), Peter Dravins, Rory Dollard (0-2), Martin Clarke (0-6), Chris Butler, Fergal Murphy, Francis Walsh (1-0), Shane Moran, Conor O'Shea, Colm Hughes, Olivia Tolster, David Monahan, Rory Mannion, Thomas Hanlon, Alan Fehilly, Jonathan Gielty.
