Our U12’s travelled to Inniskeen for their first U12 match last Friday. This was a very significant match for the ladies club as it’s the first time in 6 years that we’ve had an U12 team. Following on from the success of the GAELIC4GIRLS last year the girls put in a brilliant team effort.
The girls proudly wore their new set of jerseys and the Ladies club would like to extend a massive thank you to Tom Walsh from Ritchie Brothers who sponsored the jerseys.
The girls now look forward to playing Magheracloone at home this Sunday at 12 noon in their second group match and we wish them good luck.
