We started the game brightly, with the efforts put in on the training pitch visible for all to see and we went in at half time 1-06 to 0-00 ahead. The second half was similar to the first half and we tacked on 1-04 to win the game comfortably. It was a superb performance from the girls and the teamwork and interplay was top class. We are so proud of the girls and it was fantastic for the whole panel to play their part in tonight’s victory. Final score: Firies 1-03 John Mitchels 2-10.
