GIRLS LEAGUE Under 12 Premier

NAOISE O’Donoghue put league leaders Inter Kenmare ahead in their home game against Killarney Celtic Green. However, Maggie McCarthy equalised to give both sides a point each. Inter still lead the way on seven points.

Listowel Celtic were just a little too strong for Fenit who had good performanc­es from Emer O’Sullivan and Muireann O’Brien. But goals from Lisa Slattery, Laura Falvey, Emile Browne, Sinead Lyons, Niamh Kelliher and Molly Boyle gave Listowel Celtic the three points.

There was a huge crowd for the MEK Starz v MEK Kickerz derby. And it proved to be a cracker with the sides sharing eight goals.

Izzy McGrath hit three and Kate McCann one for the Kickerz, while April Rooney (two) and Keeva Riordan had the Starz well in touch and then a last minute equaliser by Kayla Roche ensured a fair share of the points.
