Villa were away to St. Michael's in the league Saturday morning and came away with all 3 points. Conditions for the game were good. Villa started well and dominated for most of the first half. They took the lead in the 16th minute when Liam McCormack scored from a free kick. They doubled the lead in the 25th minute when Sean Condron scored with a header from a McCormack corner. Right on half time St. Michael's were given a lifeline when they scored to make it 2-1 at the break.
In the second half Villa went 3-1 ahead when Alejandro Garcia Dias played a great ball over the top and Liam McCormack struck the ball on the volley lobbing the goalie. St. Michael'ls made it 3-2 with 20 minutes to go, when the Villa defense failed to clear their lines. Darragh Stakelum made it 4-2 with a fine finish cutting in from the left. Scott Brennan made it 5-2 with 6 minutes left with Stakelum again coming in from the left and he squared it to Brennan who made no mistake. 5-2 Full time.
A great start to the season for our u15's with 4 wins out of 4 in the league and into the last 32 in the SFAI National Cup and they also have a Regional Semi-final to look forward to when they resume in the new year.

PV u11A lost v Clerihan A
This was a tough match for the makeshift A squad, as 5 regular A squad players were unavailable, so a few of the B squad played up. Both sides played some good football, but Villa’s concentration let them down and Clerihan were more clinical at finishing their scoring opportunites.
PV u11B lost v Clerihan B
Villa were unlucky to loose this game but paid the price for not converting their scoring chances. Both sides played some lovely passing football and it was end-to-end non stop efforts from both sets of players.
PV u11C won v Clerihan C
This was a great win for the C squad who played their hearts out. Thanks to Chloe and Euan, Bobby and Calum from u10’s who helped as we had a number of players who were not available. Clerihan were unlucky not to get the draw.
