Campbeltown Pupils YFC 2005s (under-17s) returned to Kintyre on Sunday night happy with a point after an eventful Glasgow and District Youth Football League encounter against Rutherglen Glencairn.
Campbeltown Pupils took an early lead in their league clash with St Peter’s last Saturday but were undone by a second-half fightback by the Paisley visitors
Coming out for the second half, the Pupils were back in the game, trying to use the wind to their advantage.
The score was a harsh reflection considering the effort expended but the Pupils will dust themselves down and prepare for the re-match
It was another huge result for the Kintyre boys in which everyone played their part
The Pupils will be hoping to continue their away day joy from two weeks ago when they secured a 2-1 victory at Glenvale.
The Pupils were punished for some slack play, and Athletic added three further goals, including a penalty, so put a harsh reflection on the final score
While the day was organised to give the young footballers some fun and experience, it produced some good results, with the Campbeltown sides coming home unbeaten
Playing on the impressive 4G pitch at Mountblow, the Ardshiel Hotel-sponsored Pupils were 1-0 up within two minutes
Travelling to Ferguslie Park through some atrocious weekend weather, the Pupils and their hosts played out a largely even first half
