U15 DISTRICT
Congrats to Jennifer Murphy ( Captain) , Eugenie Kerins, Isobel O’ Connor, Eadrea Hayes, Kate Kerins and Siúna Crowe who were part of the winning Tralee District team.
U15 CHAMPIONSHIP
‘Player of the Match’ went to Rachael O’ Donnell and rightly so. With only a minute to go Rachael scored a goal which made it a two-point game with seconds on the clock. We won the kick out, got a free which was passed to Rachael again and her high looping kick went in over everyone including the goalkeeper to find the roof of the net for us to be ahead by one point with 10 seconds to go. What an exciting finish it was!
U15 GIRLS
Our U15 ‘Player of the Year’ went to Katie Nix. Katie was U14 but had a great role to play also in U15 and U16 games. Well deserved Katie!
Our ‘Most Improved Player’ was Aoibhín O’ Connor MacCarthy.
U16 GIRLS
Our ‘Most Improved Player’ was Éabha Murphy. Unfortunately Éabha couldn’t make it but was delighted when she was skyped with her great news.
We had 2 ‘Players of the Year’ – Katie Dwyer and Liana Williams. Congrats girls to all of you.
Our U16s were finalists in the Co. League and won the North Kerry shield.
Con O’ Connor our U16 manager complimented the girls on the work they put in on winter and summer nights in his report. He said the fun, the friendships, the camaraderie, the never say die attitude by every single one of them fighting for one another and every ball in every game , they had many wins but how well they conducted themselves on the field during and after every game made Tricia, Paddy and himself proud.
SENIOR LADIES
