HOW IT ALL BEGAN

November 1982 - 'New contest for minors'

A story appears in the Irish News announcing the new idea and inviting county champions to contact Brian Coyle at St Paul's. The Belfast club had already signed up Glenullin and Scotstown for the competition. Coyle suggested having two sections so that the teams in West Ulster and East Ulster could play-off for a Final. Within a few weeks, 8 out of 9 county champions had responded positively to the appeal and the draw was made for the games to begin. 


QUARTER-FINALS

St Paul's 3-6 Newry Shamrocks 2-8 (aet)

Gleunllin 2-8 Pearse Og 2-7 (aet)

Enniskillen Gaels 1-4 Kingscourt 0-4, at Enniskillen

Scotstown 2-2 Coalisland 0-3, at Monaghan


Host goalkeeper Stephen McPeake saved his team against Newry Shamrocks with a superb save just minutes from the end of normal time. A Sean Mackin goal then saw St Paul's through, while Declan McNicholl scored 1-3 for Glenullin as they eventually overcame Pearse Og. D.Love scored the only goal for the Fermanagh champions while Scotstown's goals came from G.McGarry and B.Sherry. 


SEMI-FINALS

St Paul's 2-5 Glenullin 2-4, at Shaw's Road

Scotstown 2-4 Enniskillen Gaels 1-5, at Enniskillen


Referee John Gough was busy in the Belfast game as St Paul's battled back from a half-time deficit of 2-2 to 0-1 to qualify for the Final. Declan Connolly scored the winning goal near the end of the contest. 


FINAL - January 1, 1983 - St Paul's 2-9 Scotstown 2-4

Brothers Aidan and Fergus Donnelly starred for the first champions, Sean Mohan scored a brilliant goal from distance, Donagh Finnegan and Marty Kerr shored up midfield, and substitute Sean McKenna finished the job with a second goal. 


St Paul's - M Peake, M Feeney, S Carville, A Rogan, G Powers, Stephen Mulvenna, J Quinn, Donagh Finnegan 0-1, Marty Kerr 0-1, Aidan Donnelly 0-3, Sean Mohan 1-1, M McErlean 0-1, Fergus Donnelly 0-1, J Cormican, Declan Connolly 0-1. Sub: Sean McKenna 1-0 for Cormican.
