U14 Football..
On Tuesday evening, we played at home to Rockban. It took us a while to settle into the game and Rockban were the dominant team in the first half, notching up a tally of 3-6 to Rovers' 1-1. Our girls were much more focused in the second half in terms of passing and competing for every ball, and scores from Katie, Anna and Shauna narrowed the gap to just five points. Ella pulled off some crucial saves in goal and with ten minutes to go there were three points between the teams. It looked for a while like we might snatch a victory but Rockban held tough and won on a scoreline of 3-12 to 4-4.

U16 Camogie
On Friday evening, we played at home to Brian Dillons. Unfortunately, we were without a number of key players and had to line out with twelve aside. While we held our own in the first half, the opposition were very strong and pulled away from us in the second half and they were the decisive winners at the full-time whistle.
Team: Caoimhe Hazelwood, Emma Barry, Emily Larkin, Aislinn O'Connor, Siobhain O'Sullivan (1-1), Arianne O'Flynn (0-1) Grace Culloty, Chloe Kiely, Michelle Lane, Aisling Finnegan, Claire Hickey, Anna Murray.
U12 Camogie
The girls (Pictured above)played their third game of the league on Saturday away to Kildorrery. For a team that had only twelve players three weeks ago, they have gone from strength to strength both in terms of numbers and confidence. On Saturday, they had a panel of seventeen and played extremely well. The first half was tight enough finishing Bride Rovers (1-0) Kildorrery (0-1), our goal scored by Ciara. However, in the second half, we played much better and this was reflected on the score sheet with goals coming from Ruby, Mollie and Shauna. In fairness to Kildorrery, they never gave up and were unlucky not to converrt more scores but Bride Rovers were the eventual winners by a substantial margin.
Team: Allanah Broderick, Ruby Hicks, Niamh O'Sullivan, Michelle Geany, Cliona Edmonds, Zoe Howard Daniels, Abby Keating, Alice Murray, Naoise McCarthy, Shauna Hayes (3-2), Ciara O'Flynn (1-0), Kate Larkin, Amy Kennedy, Caoimhe Barry, Mollie O'Connell (1-0) Lily Murray, Ruby Broderick (1-0)
