No in regards young players it's not happening because the standard at all levels in football in cork has dropped dramatically. A major reason for this is a majority of young ballers give up playing when they hit 18 19. I've watched most levels of football this year and when I think about teams 15 20 years ago they would walk all over these teams. For example , village in the early 00 won nothing but were incredible. Wilton leeside kinsale park blarney were all just way too strong. Coachford were another one in that bracket but how good would their current crop be against any of these old teams? Castleview, leeds,ballyvolane, mayfield kilreen,Balintottis,glenthorn,Blackstoneand kanturk had all really good teams innishvilla knockavilla would all be very very strong in today's leagues but were for most not up to the highest standard. We need to get young fellas more interested in continuing to play on but how do you do that. As soon as things go back to normal and they can go clubbing again and partying properly again at the weekends a lot of them will be tough to get out of bed on a sunday morning too.
