Kerins O Rahilly’s Division 2 League Winners

The North Kerry U12 girls league Game  between Kerins O’Rahillys and Corca Duibhne was played on Tuesday evening last,April 10th  at Gallerus. A Win Or A Draw Is All Kerins O Rahilly’s Needed To Be Winners Of League Of Division 2

Both teams lined out with a full compliment of players on a dry but windy evening.

 

In the first half The Blues played with a strong wind to their backs and with Kelly Fitzgerald in flying form at full forward (scoring a goal and 4pts in the first half) they took the lead from the start.

Aoibhin McCarthy at no 11 won some great ball setting up & getting some lovely scores.  Lauren Doody at centre half back was very solid in defence and also scored a pt from play.

At the half time whistle the Strand Road girls lead by 1-8 to 1-2

 

In the second half the girls from the west exerted a lot of pressure scoring a second goal & a few pts thus reducing the lead. However  midfielders Ella O’Connor & Sophie Hassett dominated for The Blues catching most kick outs and scoring pts from play & frees.

Other girls who deserve special mention for their performance on the night are Saoirse McCarthy, Young Aoibhin McCarthy who scored a great goal and Natali who at wing forward was outstanding contesting every ball.

 

When the final whistle blew the score was The Blues. 2-17 / Corca Duibhine 2-5

This was a great win for these up and coming footballers.

Sharon Roache on behalf of The North Kerry board presented the Cup to winning capt. Aoibhin McCarthy who gave a lovely speech and called for three cheers for Corca Duibhne.
