U14 League Match V Gowran
Our U14 girls started their league campaign on Monday 8th April v Gowran in Tom Ryall Park. Gowran started the better side but that didn’t stop St. Brigid’s. When they got a hold of the ball, off they took with great determination and great skill they put a brilliant goal in the back of the net. Gowran ran at the St. Brigid’s girls throughout the first half but the girls put over a few more points and were winning by 2 points at half time. There was no stopping the St Brigid’s girlS in the second half, a great team performance was displayed and all subs coming from the line showing great impact. A brilliant result for our first match ending on a scoreline of St. Brigid’s 4-10 Gowran 3-6.

U14 Roinn B Football League – GBC v Mullinavat – 12/2/2017
Report by P J Trant
The U14s travelled to Mullinavat on a bitter Sunday morning to begin their season. Aided by the wind in the first half, the boys kept the Mullinavat boys scoreless whilst also racking up an impressive 3-6.
In the second half Billy Egan played the sweeper role as the Graigue boys packed the defence to protect their lead against a Mullinavat onslaught. It never came as the full back line held firm with great support from the half back and midfielders, Despite the defensive efforts a penalty was awarded to Mullinavat but was saved well.

The U14 boys started out their campaign in the Football League all the way back in April with a deserved victory over city rivals O’Loughlin Gaels. This was the only runout they got in the Football League due to walkovers and unplayable pitches. But they were now into hard training for the hurling league after spending the winter months in a boxing club working on agility and upper body strength.
