U10

After an enjoyable away trip to Monaleen this weekend, our u10 season has come to a close. Many thanks to all players and parents for their commitment throughout the year.

U12

Commiserations to our u12 team who gave a fantastic performance in the A shield county final at the weekend but lost to Ballybacon by just two points.  Having received a 15 point beating from the same side earlier this year, the Kilruane girls gave everything this time around and almost managed to pull off a surprise win. The Ballybacon girls started the better and went 2-2 to 0-0 ahead before the Kilruane girls got on the scoreboard.  A great run from Sarah Cleary led to an Ali O’Kelly goal just before half time.  

Playing with the wind in the second half it was clear that Kilruane would stage a comeback. Clodagh Shinners looked to be through on goal when she was brought down for a penalty, which she took herself and buried in the back of the Ballybacon net, leaving a gap of just 2 points between the sides. 

Ballybacon pushed hard and 2 vital saves from Aoife Williams kept Kilruane afloat. 3 points in a row from Ballybacon opened the gap once more but a foul on Clodagh Shinners led to an Ali O’Kelly goal when just 2 points separated the sides as the referee called full time. This was a fantastic display from all the girls, but the particular stand out performance came from Orlaith Cleary on the big occasion.
