Mullabrack v Shane O’Neills
The Mullabrack U12 Girls
Mullabrack girls took on a
very strong Shane O’Neills team in the U12 championship on Tuesday
19/5/09. The visitors proved a real handful for this young
Mullabrack side in the first half taking some excellent scores
worthy of the current U12 champions. However in the second half the
Mullabrack girls put up a tremendous fight with Ursula McGeown
finding the net twice and Clara McKeown netting for a third goal.
Caoimbhe Farrell brought off several good saves in goals with Maggie
Rice and Orla Fields preventing their opponents from having many
second-half scoring chances in the full-back line. Mid-fielders
Eimear Rice and Maria Gallogly had the better of the opposition in
the second-half.. Aisling Toner and Mairead Rice impressed the
opposition with their courage and ability to win frees. Maria Murphy
and Katie Doherty tried hard against a more experienced and bigger
team. Well done girls!
Team: C Farrell, O Fields, M
Rice, C McKeown, A Toner, M Gallogly, E Rice(capt), K Doherty, U
McGeown, M Rice, M Murphy, C McKeown, K Davis.
The U12’s hosted Derrynoose
in the league on Friday evening 29/5/09. The large number of parents
who turned out to watch the children were treated to a very
entertaining and thrilling game. The Mullabrack girls had secured a
two point lead at half-time but the strength of their opponents was
difficult to deal with in the second-half with Derrynoose just
piping the home side at the post. Final score Mullabrack 3:10
Derrynoose 4:9.

Rice, Clara McKeown, A Toner, M Gallogly, E Rice, N Rice, M Murphy,

their good run in Division two when they hosted Silverbridge the
following evening. This proved to be a very entertaining game with

by a point. However the experienced Silverbridge side sneaked into a
second half lead but Rachael McGeowns point just before the
full-time whistle secured a valuable league point. Final score
