Well done to our U8’s who took part in a Camogie blitz in St. Kieran’s College on Sunday last, 7th May. This was their first day out and a great day was had by all. The girls played 3 matches against Windgap, Young Ireland’s Team A and Young Ireland’s Team B. All players were presented with a medal from Angela Downey on behalf of St Kieran’s College.

A huge well done to all of our U12 girls who have been super busy over the past few weeks representing St. Brigid’s Camogie club. On the 22nd April the club hosted a blitz for St. Lachtain’s, Muckalee, and Tullaroan. It was a very successful day, with our U12 girls giving fantastic performances in each of their three games.

Match report by Stephen Delaney
Friday evening, 16-9-2016, saw the conclusion of St Brigid‘s U12 season where they lined up against a very talented and determined James Stephens side in the Roinn A U12 County Final. A large Ballycallan crowd came to support the girls, this made the final feel like a home fixture and there is no doubt they acted as the 16th man that is often heard in post match interviews with elite athletes at top level sport, but this was something more than that, this was about parish pride and supporting your own, a concept that makes GAA and Camogie unique.

What a win for our fantastic U12s!!!! They beat James Stephens 8-5 to 1-3 last Friday 16th in the County Final. Well done girls for all your effort throughout the year! A special thank you to Mary Ronan, Stephen Delaney & Mary East for all their hard work with the team!
Thank you very much to the massive crowd that turned out for the girls.
The future of the club is safe with these girls coming up the ranks!

It was the U10’s final training session for 2016 last Monday 19th September. There was a fantastic turnout by all the girls, all 22 turned up and put in a mighty effort to finish out the season. Nothing new with this group of girls, all year even when things didn’t go their way they dug deep and gave it everything they had, and finished each match with great strength and massive heart. Each and every one of them are a credit to themselves, their families and their club and are a pleasure to train. Their futures are very bright. Read more
