Our U14 girls took part in the Feile qualifiers last Saturday in Ballymac. This was played of over a series of short games. In our first game we played Currow and this was really a game of two halves as at half time we trailed 1.5 to 0.0.

We stormed into the game in the 2nd half playing excellent football. We had a lot of chances to get something out of it but due to wides and lady luck deserting us we came up short. Currow 1.6 KOR 1.3.

In our 2nd game we played the Spa, once again we had chances to be further ahead at half time but couldn’t convert them. H/T KOR 1pt Spa 0pt, into the 2nd half and Spa added 5pts to win 5pts to 1pt.

Our next game against Ballymac was an excellent team performance from start to finish, we led 3pts to 2pts at H/T and ran out winners 5pts to 3pts. In our last game we received a walkover from Kilcummin.

Overall this a great experience for the girls which will no doubt stand to them for the future and out of the 18 girls that played 17 are underage next year again. A big thank you to all the parents who helped and supported the team throughout the day.
