What a performanc­e by Wicklow ladies on Sunday in Longford. Having lead at half-time, Wicklow 2-04 to Longford 0-03, the girls finished the job in style in the second half with the full time score Wicklow 3-13 Longford 0-04.

A special mention to the vice-captain and our own club player Niamh McGettigan who was named player of the match in what was an outstandin­g performanc­e and well deserved.

We are all now looking forward to the Leinster Intermedia­te Championsh­ip final on Sunday, July 1, in Netwatch Cullen Park, Carlow, when Wicklow will play Laois (who defeated Wexford in the other semi-final) in what promises to be a great final.

This is a huge stepping stone for Wicklow and the girls are in need of all our voices so let’s get organising to support our county team especially our own Niamh McGettigan, Rose Fagan, Saoirse O’Reilly and Mick Kavanagh (management team) in the Leinster Intermedia­te Championsh­ip final.

Well done to the St. Pats under-12 boys football team who got to the final of the All-Ireland tournament in Naas today.
