On Saturday Nov 26th two very spirited sides met each other in the worst of conditions in Sligo. Corinthians Blues travelled to meet Sligo and despite the terrible weather both sides endeavoured to play open rugby. With tries by Morgan O Brien and Harry O Donghaile  Corinthians led at half time 12 – 7. Sligo came out fighting in the second half, scoring a great try and converting to lead the game 14 -12. 10 minutes into the second half Corinthians soaked up great pressure and defended on their own line. With 10 minutes to go until the final whistle they bravely turned down a penalty on the Sligo line to take a scrum and Liam Mc Donagh scored a great try. With only a few minutes to go Gary Collumb scored an intercept try to finish the game off. Ross Mahon had a great game scoring 3 conversions from 4 in very difficult conditions. Final score was 26 -14 to Corinthians.

In extremely difficult playing conditions our u17s earned a well needed
 victory away to Ballinasloe last Sunday. Ballinasloe made the most of
 the wind advantage scoring an early try. The Corinthians then worked
hard to retain possession and territory. They were rewarded when Ben
Creaven slotted a penalty before half time leaving the score 5-3 at
the break. In the second half the Corinthians forwards pushed on. Craig
 Hansberry finished a well worked mauling try that had involved the
entire pack. The Corinthians held out a late surge to seal the victory
 8 points to Ballinasloe's 5.
