The Minor B Football Championships has reached the Semi-Final stage.

Here's we'll have a quick run down of whose left in the B competitions and their route to the semis.

Minor B Championship Semi-Finals: 

How they got here:

Balinteer St.Johns:

BSj finished top of group 1 with 2 wins and a loss. in Round one they beat Boden Bs 4-09 to 2-09, round 2 they beat Brigids 3-05 to 0-05 and then lost a high scoring game v Lusk by 4-16 to 3-13.

In the quarter-final they beat Olafs well, 5-11 to 0-09 an Olafs team who had finished on 2-1 in Group 2.

Skerries Harps:

Skerries finish second in group 3 on 2-1, they lost round 1 to Castleknock 1-05 to 1-15, regrouped to beat a poorly graded Annes 5-17 to 1-06 and then beat Fingal Raves 2-16 to 2-13.

In the quarter-final they beat Peters heavily 7-10 to 1-13 - thats a peters who had finished the 4th group on 3-0

Verdict: 

Not sure - if Harps can hold BSJ goal count down they will shade it but BSJ seem to be mad for goals having scored 15 goals in 4 games so far.

St.Brigids:

Another team who finished on 2-1 in the group stage to just squeak through behind BSJ in Group 1. Won the first round against Lusk on 1-10 to 3-05, on Round two they were beaten well by BSJ on 3-05 to 0-05 and won the third round well against Boden Bs 1-11 to 1-05.

Quater-final they beat Round Towers Clondalkin well 1-11 to 0-05 - A RTC team which had topped group 2.

Castleknock: 

Castleknock topped group 3 on 3-0 with a convincing win over Skerries in R1, a narrow win over Raves in R2 and getting a WO in Round 3 from Annes. Not ideal preperation for the knockout stages

Despite that they won a high scoring game v Cuala on 3-16 to 3-12 a Cuala team that had finihed second in Group 4.

Verdict: 

Local derby - should be close - Maybe the hard fought quarter-final to give Castleknock the edge?

Best of luck to everyone involved! 💪
