4th April

Ballymore Eustace 6-04 Athy 2-08

A brilliant win for the U14 girls’ first match of the league, played in Athy on April 4^th. At half time it was anyone’s game with Ballymore ahead by three points.  Very wet and cold weather made play very difficult but this didn’t deter the Ballymore girls and a very healthy scoreline won them the match.  Well done to Annabelle O’Neill for a great game on her first outing with the team.  Final score Ballymore (6-04) Athy (2-08) Mayah Doyle (4-01), Eimear Mooney (0-01), Lily Clohessey (1-02), Daire Graham (1-0)

Under 14 Girls compete in Féile Competition

The U14 girls played away in Ballykelly on March 16 in the Féile Competition.  First up was Ballymore V Ballykelly who they met in the U13’s final last year.  At half time Ballymore were one point ahead, however, the Ballykelly girls kept the pressure on resulting in a draw of 2 – 02 at full time.  Ballymore were up again, this time against Maynooth.  Ballymore proved to be the stronger team with a goal lead at half time.  Maynooth fought hard but the game ended with Ballymore 2-02 Maynooth 0-02.

Final game was between Ballykelly and Maynooth.  As the two Bally’s drew earlier, Ballykelly needed to beat Maynooth with a greater goal difference than the Ballymore win.  Final score was 5-01 to 0-02 giving Ballykelly a spot in the semi-final.  Hard luck to all the Ballymore girls who played a blinder on a very wet and windy day.  Thanks to Ballykelly for organising it.
