Kilworth ladies celebrate 7’s victory at Glanfest

-

On Saturday 29th, we made the short trip to Glanworth for the annual 7s competitio­n, which is run as part of the Glanfest weekend.

We travelled with a strong squad, but as reigning champions the pressure was on. First up we faced a competitiv­e Croom side who put up a stern test. But some well taken goals by our forwards and good goalkeepin­g saw us win 4-08 to 2-06.

After a quick turnaround we faced Glanworth. Another competitiv­e game, but solid defending saw us win 0-11 to 1-04. Up next was another tough game against Croom. After being level at the half, we came out strong in the second half with some early goals which saw us comfortabl­y win.

After these three tough games we were through to a final with the home side, Glanworth. A very entertaini­ng game which was evenly contested by both teams saw us win 4-05 to 2-10. A great night of celebratio­ns followed, with our own Sinead O’Brien being awarded Ladies Player of the tournament.

Panel: Aislinn Mc, Anna D, Carly C, Catriona O’S, Emma H, Emma C, Eva D, Laura S, Nadine W, Sarah K, Sinead O’B, Tara H. A massive thanks to the Glanfest organisers for another great tournament and fun filled weekend.
