Seniors/Minors

Our senior squad played Drom on Friday night. Although beaten, our team put in a very credible performance with some very good individual displays and an ever improving team effort. Rachel Maher and Ruth Hassett were very strong in the backs: captain Zoe Grattan and Kristen Howard worked tirelessly at midfield while Eimer Ryan, Ciara McGrath and Alanna Morris were impressive in the forwards. The management were also very happy with the displays of the younger players who are learning their trade at senior level and are showing great promise.
