U16 East Cork Football League:
Bride Rovers 6-8 Midleton 3.10
The rain held off on Sunday for the U16 ladies
football match away to Midleton. With a number of players absent on the day,
both sides lined out with just twelve apiece. Midleton got off to a good start
with two early goals but Bride Rovers had a strong wind advantage and Grace
Culotty soon brought the teams level with three points and a goal in quick
succession. Bride Rovers were the dominant team for the remainder of the first
half. Grace scored an additional 3-2 and Fiona Barry scored two points, half
time score 4-7 to 2-1. The game in the second half was more challenging for our
team against the strong wind and a slight incline. Midleton worked tirelessly
and earned some well-deserved scores, notching up 1-7 to Bride Rovers 2-1. However,
our team marked up tight and maintained good passing movements, and were
deserved winners at the full-time whistle. Overall, both teams put in fine
performances in less than ideal weather and pitch conditions.
Scorers: Grace Culotty 5-6, Fiona Barry 0-2,
Emma Barry 1-0
Team: Sarah Murphy, Caoimhe Hazelwood, Rachel
O'Flynn, Chloe Murphy, Emma Hazelwood, Emily Larkin, Aisling Finnegan, Grace
