MONAGHAN COUNTY HANDBALL
LOUISE MC GINNITY WINS IRISH NATIONALS HANDBALL TITLE
Six of our players travelled to Galway last weekend to participate n the Irish Junior Nationals.
Congratulations to all six on fine performances. They were Emily Mc Ginnity, Seán Callan, Louise Mc Ginnity, Eoghan Mc Ginnity, Justas Dambinskas and Konrad Kowal.
Pride of place goes to Louise Mc Ginnity who won her final with victory over Cork’s O’Malley.
Louise had been in great form all weekend and showed her full array of handball skills with her new sidearm shot being immensely effective. Her speed around the court was something to behold.
Eoghan reached the semifinal where he lost to Wexford’s Josh Kavanagh.
Emily won 3 out of her 5 matches in the youngest age group.
Konrad and Justas both played well while losing to tough opponents.
Likewise Seán had a very strong first round opponent. Following defeat he entered the consolation Plate competition but was unlucky to lose against his next opponent.
