Move With Murph
There are organised walks again Friday and Tuesday nights at 8pm on the walking track in Rosemount in support of Alan Mullen. We hope to see good turnouts, let’s get behind Murph on his journey.

Do you know Keenahans or Rabbitts with Rosemount origins circa 1800's??? See message below.

Hello,
I am looking for information on my great great grandparents, Patrick Keenahan (b. abt 1825) and Bridget Rabbitt (b. abt 1825 - Parents John Rabbitt and Anne Claven). My great grandfather, Lawrence Keenan, was born to them in 1842 in Rosemount, Westmeath. They emigrated to America c. 1850 and Patrick and Bridget died on board the ship, leaving Lawrence an orphan. He lived with relatives in New York state (maybe Catherine Garrity). Any information on these families will be most appreciated.

Thank you.

Div7
We played Mullingar Shamrocks in the Div 7 League final last Saturday in Rosemount at 2pm. A massive effort was put in by both teams as Mullingar led by 6 points at the break, we managed to claw that lead back in the second half and led by 6 points ourselves with ten minutes remaining. Mullingar worked hard and never gave up and got there reward in the final minutes scoring a goal to win the game. It turned out to be a very entertaining match and even though we had a lot of players absent we fought hard and were unlucky to lose by a point in the closing minutes.
Final Score
Rosemount 1:13 Mullingar 3:08

AGM
We had our AGM on Saturday night last where our outgoing secretary Paddy Malynn, reflected on a successful year, especially at Intermediate, Minor and U16 level. There was some lively debate, mostly centred around falling numbers in the club. At the election of officers we had a completely new Top table elected. Chairman - Colm Boland, Secretary - Niall O'Brien, Treasurer - Peter Keenan(jnr). Stephen Darcy has taken up the PRO portfolio.

Intermiedate Cup
We bowed out of the intermiedate Cup on Sunday with a one point loss to Shandonagh in Shandonagh. We led at half time and for most of the game but we lost out by a point in the latter stages. A good effort was put in by all the lads for this time of year and had we been more ruthless in front of goal we may have come away with a victory. Final Score Rosemount 1-13 Shandonagh 1-14.

Junior B Final

Rosemount 0-11
St Mary’s Rochfordbridge 2-3
So, 2014 hasn’t gone without some silverware. Our junior b championship win on Saturday last went in some way towards making up for our county final loss two weeks ago. A large number of supporters travelled the by-now familiar route to Rochfordbridge. Having played with a strong breeze in the opening half we were just a point to the good at the break 5 points to 1-1. However we upped our game in the second period. TJ Fox was very much to the fore in driving at the home defence generating scoring opportunities. Ahead by five, with ten minutes remaining, things were looking good, but the home side pulled a goal back to leave us with a nervy two point lead. A point apiece in the dying seconds gave us a well deserved two point win.
Team: Darren O’Connell, Damien Carroll, Eamon Boland, Dylan Hassett, Paddy Keenan, Darren King, Boidu Sayeh, TJ. Fox(0-2), Andy McCormack, Daniel Boland, Cathal Daly(0-3), David Malynn, Danny Fielding(0-2), Paddy McCormack, Johnny Keenan(0-3). Subs used: Damien Boland for D. Hassett, Aaron Farrell for Daniel Boland, Stephen Darcy for P. Keenan, Dan Digan for D. Fielding, Richie O’Brien(0-1) for P. McCormack, Paddy Malynn for J. Keenan.

Appreciation
With an under16 final and possibly an Intermediate cup competition left to play, the curtains are almost drawn on 2014. We would like to thank the managers of all our teams for all their work throughout the year. Thanks to our supporters who have travelled in large numbers to our games at all levels. We want to thank in a special way, our sponsors and those volunteers who help to keep our finances ticking over, without them the club would not survive.

6th Oct 2014

Intermediate Final
Rosemount 0-5
Caulry 1-5
This was always going to be a low scoring contest where one score was likely to be the difference between winning and losing. We had the better of the early exchanges with Dude McCormack giving us a two point lead. Then a goal from Garry Flanagan gave Caulry a lead that they maintained till the end. Three behind at the break, we brought the deficit back to one after the restart and held Caulry scoreless till five minutes from time. But for an excellent save by Joe McMahon in the Caulry goal with ten minutes left, Declan Mullens shot could have got us over the line. While it may appear to have been a poor game, given the lack of scores, credit must go the defenders on both sides. Congratulations to Caulry who were probably marginally better throughout. While we came up just short at the final hurdle, it certainly wasn’t from a lack of effort from our lads. On behalf of the committee, I want to say a big thank you to Frank, his selectors and the team for all their effort, in what was a long and enjoyable year. Team: Eoin Carberry, Shane Tone, Eamon Boland, Luke Kelly, Andy McCormack, Darren King, Boidu Sayeh, Enda Boland, Declan Mullen(0-1), Paddy Boland, James Geoghegan, DD McCormack, Theo Watts, Dude McCormack(0-4), David Tone. Subs use : TJ Fox for T. Watts, David Malynn for P. Boland, Cathal Daly for DD. McCormack.

U16
Our under 16s are due to play Athlone in Moate in the semi- final on Saturday


29th Sep 2014

County Final
All roads lead to Mullingar on Sunday where we face Caulry in the Intermediate final at 4.30. Nothing short of an all-out effort will be required against a side who can call on the experience of the last three intermediate finals. We wish Frank and the lads all the best for Sunday.

Minor
Our minors lost out to a strong Shandonagh side on a score of 2-12 to 1.11 in Kilbeggan on Saturday morning.

Junior B
Well done to our Junior B team who qualified for the final last Sunday. They overcame Milltown in a rather physical encounter in the park on Sunday afternoon. With the sides tied at the break, 6 points each, we stepped it up a gear with some excellent scores in second period. Final score 2-10 to 1-6.


22nd Sept 2014
Intermediate Championship
Rosemount 1-9
Tubberclair 0-9
I said in last week’s notes that we would need to up our game considerably from our quarter final performance if we were to beat Tubberclair, and that we duly did in Mullingar on Saturday evening. A good workmanlike performance from start to finish sees us into the Intermediate final on 5th October. Despite missing several scoring chances we went in at the break two ahead, 6 points to 4. In what was a low scoring game, a goal was always going to be crucial and it came within 10 minutes of the restart. An excellent long punt out of defence by Shane Tone found Theo Watts who flicked to the on-running David Tone. He in turn made up the yards and put the ball low to the left, out of Garry Connaughton’s reach. Positives from the game was the work put in by all the lads, but especially the backline. In the ‘Must do Better’ category has to be our shooting. A vast improvement in this area will be required to beat either Caulry or Tang, who replay their drawn match on Friday evening. Team: Eoin Carberry, Shane Tone, Eamon Boland, Luke Kelly, Andy McCormack, Darren King, Boidu Sayeh(0-2), Enda Boland, TJ. Fox, Theo Watts(0-1), James Geoghegan, DD McCormack, Danny Fielding(0-2), Dude McCormack(0-2), David Tone(1-1). Subs used: Paddy Boland for TJ Fox, Cathal Daly(0-1) for D. Fielding, Declan Mullen for J. Geoghegan, David Malynn for DD. McCormack, David Fox for T. Watts.

8th Sept 2014
Intermediate Championship
Rosemount 2-9
Milltownpass 1-8
Our intermediate team qualified for the semi-final of the Intermediate championship, with a hard fought and well-earned performance in Mullingar on Sunday. Two goals in the opening half from DD McCormack gave us some breathing space at the break. Milltownpass came back at us in the second half and some stout defending was required to keep our noses in front. We now meet Tubberclair in the semi in two weeks time. Another step up in performance will be definitely be required if we are to clear this hurdle.

Ladies County Final
Well done to Moate Ladies on winning the Intermediate title in Athlone on Saturday week defeating Ballycomoyle by the narrowest of margins. They now go on to play Leinster club championship against Wexford this Saturday and more importantly, will be playing senior football next year.
Commiserations but well done to their minor team, who put in a Trojan effort but lost out to Rochfordbridge by two points in the semi-final in Tubber on Sunday.

Intermediate Championship
Rosemount 2-17
Ballinagore 1-6
Our final group game of championship ended with comfortable win over Ballinagore in Moate on Saturday evening. David (Dude) McCormack marked his return with a goal after seven minutes to give us a lead that would not be relinquished. The bulk of our points came from David Tone and Danny Fileding, five apiece. This result means we finished top of the table with Tang, (ahead on score difference) but they take the semi-final spot due to their head-to-head win). We now meet Milltownpass who finished third in their group. Team: Eoin Carberry, Shane Tone, Eamon Boland, Luke Kelly, Andy McCormack, Enda Boland(0-1), Boidu Sayeh(0-2), Theo Watts(0-1) Stephen Darcy, TJ.

13th Aug 2014
U21 Championship
Rosemount 3-3
Tubberclair 1-15
We had to give second best to a very strong and balanced Tubberclair side on Tuesday in the park. However, our lads gave a very commendable performance and were always in the game right up to the final minutes. First half goals from David Fox and Cathal Daly ensured a one point deficit at the break, 2-1 to 8 points. The visitors kept up the momentum in the second period. An Andy McCormack goal was cancelled out by county player, Alan Coffey, who had been kept under wraps till then by Darren King. One wonders what if our county man, Dude McCormack had been available?

Intermediate Championship
Rosemount 1-4
Tang 2-7
It was Tang who came away with both points from our top of the table clash in Rochfordbridge on Saturday last. We struggled in almost every area of the field against a very determined Tang side. With both teams defending in numbers in miserable wet conditions, it made for a very dour affair. In the end the difference between the teams was Tang's ability to shoot for points at the earliest opportunity. We wish Declan Mullen a speedy recovery from a facial injury picked up after a clash of heads midway through the second half.
Team: Eoin Carberry, Damien Carroll, Eamon Boland, Luke Kelly, Shane Tone, James Geoghegan, Darren King, Declan Mullen(1-2), Enda Boland(0-1), Andy McCormack, TJ.

Our u21s had their first outing of 2014 with a well deserved win over Caulry on Sunday morning in the park. After a very close contest the sides couldn't be separated within the hour, scoring 1-9 apiece. In extra time the home side took the game to the visitors outscoring them 7 points to 2.

28th July 2014

Intermediate Championship

Rosemount 4-4
Ballynacargy 0-8
We picked up another two points in the championship by virtue of an eight point win over Ballynacargy in Tang on Sunday last. While Bal raised as many flags as ourselves, fortunately for us four of them were green. David Tone put the first underneath the keeper after only two minutes while Declan Mullen added another after twenty, when he fisted a rebound to the net. Were it not for the woodwork and two fine saves by Bal keeper Richie Price, it could have been a lot more than the 2-3 to two points at the break. Early in the second half, Theo Watts went on one of his trade-mark runs and while he appeared to lose control of the ball, did enough to toe poke it to the net. Bal had the better of the second half exchanges, scoring six points and forcing Eoin Carberry into making three excellent saves. Declan Mullen extended the lead with his second goal with ten minutes remaining.
Team: Eoin Carberry, Damien Carroll, Eamon Boland, Luke Kelly, Boidu Sayeh, James Geoghegan, Darren King, Declan Mullen(2-1), Enda Boland, Theo Watts(1-0) Andy McCormack, David Malynn, David Tone(1-0) DD McCormack, David Fox(0-1).

20th July 2014
Intermediate Championship

Rosemount 0-11
Ballymore 0-3
We made it a welcome maximum points from two games by overcoming Ballymore in Rochfortbridge on Saturday evening last. The weather had behaved itself right up to the throw-in but then we were treated to a dangerous lightning storm and a continuous downpour for all of the first half. We coped much better with the conditions, with a point each from David Tone, Boidu Sayeh, David Malynn and 3 from Declan Mullen(2 frees) to lead 6 points to 2 at the break. However, the wide count was racking up. The second half points came from Andy McCormack(2), David Malynn, David Tone and substitute David Fox. While it may not have been a classic we did enough, to pick up a valuable two points. Next up, Ballynacargy in Tang on Sunday next at 6pm. Team: Eoin Carberry, Damien Carroll, Eamon Boland, Luke Kelly, Boidu Sayeh(0-1), James Geoghegan, Darren King, Declan Mullen(0-3), Enda Boland, Andy McCormack(0-2), Theo Watts, TJ. Fox, David Malynn(0-2), DD McCormack, David Tone(0-2). Subs used: David Fox for TJ. Fox. Cathal Daly for T.Watts.

C/F/C/W 0-7
We had an easier than expected passage through the first round of the championship on Tuesday evening with a comfortable win over Castletown-Finea-Coole-Whitehall. We were 1-2 ahead after just five minutes with Andrew McCormack finishing a series of good passing movements to the net. DD McCormack and David Malynn also netted before the break to leave the half time score, 3-6 to 2 points. Two more goals followed in the second period from DD McCormack and David Tone. The general consensus was ‘A good performance but much more serious challenges lie ahead’. Team: Eoin Carberry, Damien Carroll, Eamon Boland, Luke Kelly, Paddy Boland, Darren King, Boidu Sayeh, Declan Mullen (0-4), Enda Boland(0-1), David Malynn(1-1), Theo Watts(0-2), Andy McCormack(1-0), David Tone(1-4), DD McCormack(2-0), David Fox.

25th May 2014
Rosemount 0-8
Shandona 1-9

Much like our game on Tuesday night, a goal on the final whistle decided the issue, except that today, we were already a point behind and chasing the game. We started very strong with four unanswered points, but Shandona got to grips with the game and were on level terms at the break, 5 apiece. We had problems in the second half translating possession into scores and were reduced to three points from placed balls by Declan Mullen. The visitors for their part, had the stronger finish and were one to the good before hitting the net, to leave them four ahead at the end. With the Championship only two weeks away, there’s some work to be done if we are to overcome the intermediate champions of two ago.

Team: Darren O’Connell, Damien Carroll, Eamon Boland, Luke Kelly, Andy McCormack, Darren King, Boidu Sayeh, Declan Mullen(0-4) Enda Boland, David Malynn(0-1), Paddy Boland, Daniel Boland, David Tone(0-2), James Geoghegan, DD McCormack(0-1).

ACFL Div2
Rosemount 0-13
St Malachy’s 1-10
A goal two minutes into injury time denied us a deserving two points from this home game with St Malachy’s on Tuesday last. Instead we had to settle for a share of the spoils, after a highly entertaining game, with never more than three points between the sides. Both sides fielded without a number of regulars but it didn’t take from the entertainment value. Having held our own against a senior outfit, we trailed by just two at the break, 8 points to 6. We increased the tempo in the second period, profiting from a number of poor kickouts by the visitors. As full time approached we were 3 ahead and looked to have done enough, despite wasting a number of scoring chances. St. Malachys however had the final say with just their third score of the half on the final whistle. Good to see Theo Watts making his return after a long injury layoff. Team: Darren O’Connell, Damien Carroll, Richie O’Brien, Boidu Sayeh, Andy McCormack, Darren King, Dylan Hassett, Declan Mullen(0-6), Enda Boland(0-1), David Malynn(0-2), DD McCormack, Daniel Boland(0-1) Danny Fielding(0-1),Dude McCormack(0-1), David Fox(0-1).

ACFL Div2
Rosemount 1-12
Castledaly 3-8

Rosemount started this game brightly in perfect conditions in Castledaly on Sunday morning, with three unanswered points from David Tone. Paddy Holloway then pounced for a goal to level the sides after ten minutes. Declan Mullen put us back in front with a free but almost immediately, Paul Kelly goaled for the home side. Having done most of the hard work and playing well we still found ourselves trailing by two at the break, 2-1 to 5 points. When Kelly pounced for his second goal midway through the second half we were seven in arrears. But the lads put in a fine final quarter and a great move from end-to-end saw David Tone palm to the net, for the goal of the game. Another point brought us to within three before Dude McCormack’s pile driver skimmed inches over the bar to leave just two between the sides at the finish. This was an excellent game of football where both sides will most likely be satisfied with the outcome.
Team: Eoin Carberry, Damien Carroll, Eamon Boland, Patrick Boland, Boidu Sayeh, Enda Boland, Dylan Hassett, Declan Mullen(0-1), Dude McCormack(0-2), David Malynn(0-1), James Geoghegan, Andy McCormack, David Tone(1-4), DD McCormack(0-2), TJ.

ACFL Div2
Rosemount 3-12
St Marys 2-11

We made it two wins from two on Saturday last, with a hard earned win away to St Mary’s Rochfordbridge. Declan Mullen opened the scoring when he ran through from the throw in, and his pile-driver could well have been under instead of over the bar. The goal did come a few minutes later when James Geoghegan was put through for a one on one with the keeper, after some excellent work by TJ Fox. The home side pounced for a goal on fifteen minutes, latching onto a loose ball that we failed to clear. Further points from Declan Mullen(2), David Tone(2), Darren King, Andy McCormack and a goal from David Malynn left us six ahead at the break, 2-7 to 1-4. James Geoghegan palmed a ball to the net on the resumption, after some fine support play and a series of hand passes from the halfback line. The goal of the game came from the home side when the Mary’s full forward, shot from thirty yards, with his shot dipping into the top corner. Points from Declan Mullen, David Malynn, David Tone and Brian Clarke left the final score 3-12 to 2-11. Despite having the lion’s share of possession throughout, we failed to make enough of it count, with some wayward kicking and a pass too many. On the plus side, the support play was excellent and we had a very assured performance from our youngest member Damien Carroll. Team: Darren O’Connell, Damien Carroll, Eamon Boland, Luke Kelly, Darren King(0-1), Patrick Boland, Declan Mullen(0-5), Enda Boland, T.J. Fox, James Geoghegan(2-0), David Malynn(1-1), Andy McCormack(0-1), David Tone(0-3), Brian Clarke(0-1). Sub used: Emmet Heavin for D. Hassett.

Rosemount 2-12
C.F.C.W. 0-6
Our first team got their league off to a winning start, with a comfortable win over a disappointing C.F.C.W side in the park on Saturday. 1-2 apiece from the McCormack brothers, Andy and David, within 15 minutes left the visitors with a mountain to climb. By the break the score was 2-7 to 6 points. With the visitors failing to score in the second half, one wonders what they can produce when we meet them in the championship later in the year - A whole different ballgame one suspects. Team: Eoin Carberry(0-1), Dylan Hassett, Luke Kelly, Damien Carroll, Darren King, Eamon Boland, Boidu Sayeh, Enda Boland, Paddy McCormack, Andy McCormack(1-3), David Tone(0-2), David Malynn(0-1), Brian Clarke(0-1), Dude McCormack(1-2), David Fox(0-2).

National Football League Division 1 - 2014
You will already be aware Westmeath will be hosting the top 3 teams in Ireland in Division 1 of the National Football League 2014 for our home matches at Cusack Park Mullingar, Dublin on Feb 9th Mayo on March 9th and Kerry on March 30th. As part of an initiative to increase support for Westmeath Footballers the Westmeath Football Committee are sending out 100 tickets to all Football Clubs for those upcoming matches.
This campaign was run last season for our home Division 2 league games and proved very popular with over 400 tickets being returned. Some clubs put their full support behind the project but it was also very noticeable at these matches that some clubs had not distributed the tickets as U16 from their clubs approached the personnel looking after this project wondering why they had not received tickets. Parents of those attending were extremely grateful that this initiative was in place but a sizable number of parents also highlighted that they had not been informed of this initative by their clubs.
I therefore ask that all clubs actively distribute these tickets and inform your members and players through your Club text system, your weekly notes in the Local Papers and most importantly through the schools adjacent to all you clubs.
The Football Committee and team management will use all available media opportunities to make the wider Westmeath community aware of this information. I urge all clubs to please get behind the Westmeath Football Team for 2014 and help us to get out support for the team that they so richly deserve.

17th August
Intermediate Championship
Rosemount 2-6
Tang 1-6
It was shoulders to the wheel time in Tubberclair on Saturday as we avoided a possible relegation battle later in the year. With a good hard-working effort we managed to see off Tang with a 3 point win. We started brightly and were two points to the good after twelve minutes when Tang made their first foray up field and netted after a questionable number of steps. We responded immediately when DD McCormack was first to the ball and side footed to the net from twenty yards. Another goal from David Tone left us five ahead at the break, 2-4 to 1-2, having played with a strong breeze. Some strange tactics from the restart saw us with up to eleven players in our own half for the third quarter, during which time we failed to score, while Tang reduced the deficit to a point. Returning to a more conventional formation saw us tack on two more points and live out some very anxious final minutes. Our final group game is against Ballinagore on Sunday the 1st Sep in Moate by which time we’ll know if there is still an unlikely quarter final place left to play for.
Team: Eoin Carberry, Dylan Hassett, Darren King, TJ. Fox, Shane Tone, Andrew McCormack, Paddy Boland, Declan Mullen(0-2), David (Dude) McCormack, David Mullen, Stephen Darcy, David Malynn(0-1), David Tone(1-2), David (DD) McCormack(1-0), Danny Digan(0-1).Subs used: Eamon Boland for D.Hassett, Paddy McCormack for D. Digan, Brian Clarke for S. Darcy.

Fixtures:
We play Tang in Tubberclaire on Saturday next 17th at 5.30. We must win this game to have any chance of making the play off stages of the Intermediate Championship. We have the players and if they perform to their full potential we can do it. Best of luck to the full squad

Minor Championship: Rosemount play Culrly in the Minor Championship on Wed 21st Aug in Rosemount. We wish all of our team members who are out trough injury a speedy recovery

Results:
U16 championship: Our U16 put in a splendid performance tonight against a strong Kilbeggan/St Josephs team to win this U 16 Championship by 2.15 to 1.7 . Rosemount fought all the way and despite Kilbeggan /St Josephs gaining the upper hand with a Goal and two points either side of half, and the loss of Cathal Daly through injury early in the second half this appeared to give more determination to this very young squad . We hope the injury to Cathal is not too serious and we wish him speedy recovery.

Div 2 Championship: Rosemount lads worked very hard to win this Div 2 Championship game against St Lomans who had home advantage last week. The final Score Rosemount 2.11 to St Lomans 1.9

Fr Manning Cup Final: Well done to Cathal Daly and Darragh Healy who were part of the Westmeath U 16 team which drew with Offaly in the Fr Manning Cup Final in Longford on Wednesday last. Both club members were also on the team that won the Gerry O’Reilly Shield in Oldcastle on Saturday last. We also had a number of Rosemount ladies in action with Westmeath over the weekend. Well done to all our club members.

Kerry Connection: Some of you may have noticed the No 11 Kerry Minor last Sunday when they were beaten by Tyrone in the All Ireland Quarter Final. Jack Savage scored 1.8 (He also scored 10 points the previous week in the Munster final getting “Man of the Match”) Well why wouldn’t he with his Rosemount connections!!. His Great Grand Father was the legendary Rosemount and Westmeath footballer Jack Carberry. His grand Aunt Jo wasn’t half proud of him and why wouldn’t she.(rumour has it that transfer papers are been sought by Jo)
