The U16 Boys first game of the season saw them host Bobcats in what was always going to be a tough encounter. Bobcats started stronger and lead by 9 at the end of the 1st despite some good defensive work from Magic. A strong 2nd quarter from Ruairi Kennedy in particular scoring all Magics points kept 9 between them at the half. Magic were finding scores hard to get particularly from 3s and Bobcats pulled away in the 3rd. Two lovely 3s from Alfie Cronin and 1 from Conor McGibney delighted the home crowd but Bobcats came away with a well deserved win. The boys did well considering they haven't been training that long and will improve as the play more games throughout the league.
