Junior League

Bride Rovers 2-08 Carrigaline 4-16

Bride Rovers Junior Ladies Football team travelled to Carrigaline on Sunday last for their 4th game in this competition. Playing against a strong wind in the opening half the Rovers backs were under constant pressure. Stand-In Goalie Claire Hickey made some fine save and the backs defended well forcing the Carrigaline forwards to kick points from distance as we foiled many of their goal opportunities. However Carrigaline had a big lead at the interval, 2-11 to 1-02 with the Rovers scores coming from Katie Kelleher (2 frees) and a goal from Siobhan O'Sullivan.

After the interval and now playing with the wind the Rovers attacked Carrigaline, a goal by Mel Dorgan followed by points from Andrea Quinn O'Donovan and Katie Kelleher reduced the Carrigaline lead to 5 points. But Carrigaline finished the stronger scoring 2 more goals to win by 4-16 to 2-08.

Team:

Claire Hickey, Aine Cashman, Emily Larkin, Katie Connor, Aoife O'Riordan, Siobhan O'Sullivan (1-0), Talitha O'Neill, Trish O'Sullivan, Aislinn O'Connor, Emma Barry, Katie Kelleher (0-5 4F), Emma Roche, Andrea Quinn O'Donovan (0-2), Mel Dorgan (1-0), Laura Pratt, Elaine Culloty, Rachel O'Flynn, Chloe Ahern.
