St Joseph's won the U16 Schoolboys Cup with a 1-0 win over Leeside on Sunday.

Discipline, some fresh faces, and a bit of League of Ireland expertise is what got St Joseph's over the line to win a second consecutive schoolboys FAI Cup yesterday.

That's what the team's manager Davy Cummins is saying after seeing his side beat Leeside 1-0 to claim the Under 16 SFAI Cup in Kilkenny yesterday.

A large part of the playing group graduated from the under 15s side that the Cup in the grade last year, while a handful of new faces came in during the off-season.

Cummins says former Athlone Town, Sligo and Hearts striker Padraig Moran's involvement in coaching has been crucial.
