Report by Tara Hogan
Last Saturday 30th September, saw the end to the U12’s 2017 season with an away game against Urlingford in the Shield Final.
Excitement was in the air as we began the game and each and every member of the panel fought their little hearts out for the blue and white jersey. Our girls must be admired for their hard work as they fought hard for every ball in a tough battle. Even with all this determination, unfortunately it wasn’t our day on Saturday.
We would like to thank the girls for being such a delightful, energetic and enthusiastic group to work with throughout the year. Read more
