SENIOR CAMOGIE COUNTY CHAMPIONS
Well Done to our Senior girls & their management team on a 0-9 to Gailltir’s 0-8 County Final win. It's back-to-back wins for the Club as we dug deep against the wind in the second half to win by a point. Eight points for Player of the Match, Beth Carton and one for Captain Abby Flynn. Great solid performances all round in a very physical game. Hard Luck to Gaultier! There was a big turn out for the Cup returning to Gracedieu to begin the celebrations which saw the girls pose for a great 'Top of The Town' photo on the Bullpost, for day two!
Well done to all the girls that played the Go Game, at half time. Great work girls, you were all super guards of honour and supporters today. Fantastic to get to play on the full pitch in Walsh Park on the day our Senior Camogie team retained their County Champions title. Thank you to all the parents for getting the girls there.
