Féile - The girls under-14 team along with their management team of Brian Foley, Sheena Moran, Bridget Campion and Grace Murphy travelled to Dundalk on Friday last to participat­e in Féile Peil na nÓg 2018.

Clan Na Gael Dundalk were our host club for the weekend and what fantastic hosts they were.

The girls’ first game was against Naomh Mairtin of Louth from which the girls had a hard fought win in coming out on top with a scoreline of 3-8 to 1-2.

Next up was a tough, aggressive encounter for our girls against St. Manchans of Offaly with our girls prevailing on a score of 1-9 to 1-3.

The girls had qualified for the quarter-final but the next match against Clan Na Gael of Louth would determine who topped the group. In this match, the girls battled hard but with a lot of missed chances came out on the wrong side of the final score 1-5 to 3-2.

Next up in the quarter-final the girls played Taghmon/Camross from Wexford; winning this one 3-2 to 0-6.

Onwards to the semi-final for the girls where they would play a very strong Knockainey side from Limerick, the match being played in St. Mary’s GAA Ardee.
