RECENT RESULTS U16B League Castlemartyr 06-12 Cloughduv 04-14 This long overdue fix-
ture was finally fulfilled last Thursday evening after a lot of false starts when Cloughduv made the jour- ney to Castlemartyr. Our U16 team hadn’t played a competitive match since the end of April although all the girls have been in- volved with other age groups during the summer from U13 all the way up to our junior team. It was a slightly chillier evening than we’ve been used to of late but it was dry un- derfoot which lent itself to perfect conditions for a fast flowing game. The
game began at
a blistering pace and it wasn’t long before the visitors opened the scor- ing with a well take point from close to the sideline and then added a second a minute later. With good work from Ellen Hayes Nally and Grainne Lynch in the middle of the field, pressurising their counter- parts, and supplying use- ful ball into our forwards it wasn’t long before we were on the scoreboard
ourselves with three points from play from Ellen’s sister Lilly and a expertly executed 45 from Aimee Morgan. Cloughduv add- ed another point before Aimee scored her first goal of the game with an unstoppable shot from well outside the 13m line. Our full back line of Ci- ara Steele, Aisling Harty and Ella Fleming , broke down attack after attack and made life very difficult for Coughduv’s forwards and they had to work hard for every score. We trad- ed score for score and in the 29th
minute it was all
square at 01-06 a piece. Just when we were antici- pating the half time whis- tle to allow the girls to rest and regroup our forwards had other ideas and within 60 seconds we had raised the green flag not once but twice after a two fantastic passages of play involving a final shot from an im- possibly tight angle and a move involving five dif- ferent players all the way from the half back line di- rectly to goal. This left us with a nice cushion at the short whistle but we knew we had to keep up the in- tensity for the second half as both teams had the po- tential and ability to win the game.
Castlemartyr Camogie The only change at the
beginning of the second half was a swap of po- sition with Aisling Mc- Carthy taking up the full forward position and Faye McGrath moving to wing back. We started bright- ly with Millie Bowles and Amy Murphy in the half forwards continuing to break any continuity Cloughduv had in
their
defence and we had add- ed a point and a goal to our score within the first two minutes after the re- start. But for the next ten minutes
it was all about
Cloughduv. Although we did score another goal in that
period Cloughduv
scored 03-04 to draw the game once more, 05-07 to 04-10. Our girls showed real character and upped their effort even more. Half backs Kate Butler, Caoilfhionn Barry and Faye McGrath took the game by the scruff of the neck and began forcing the attackers into making mis- takes. These mistakes were punished and the resultant clearances went directly to our clinical forwards and it wasn’t long before we were ahead again with another green flag raised. Lucy Keneally replaced Ella Flemimg who had a tremendous game at cor-

ner back. Cloughduv kept plugging away, converting a 45 and forcing a fine save from our goalie, Chloe Lane, who deflected a goal bound shot over the bar. Mille made way for Ruby McGrath and Nicole Mc- Carthy replaced corner forward April Cousins who was a constant thorn in their defences’s side. Grainne and Ellen in mid- field continued their excel- lent supply of ball to our forwards and we added another three points from play. With ten minutes left we led by four points. The
pressure mounted
on our half back and full back lines and as tiredness set in it was our girls who proved to be the more re- silient, wining more and more ball and clearing their lines with more ef- ficiency. Cloughduv did score another point but we responded with a brace of our own before they
converted a 45 which was to be the last score of the game. It was a great game to
watch with end to end play, the ball traveling up and down the pitch at speed. We saw impressive scoring from both sides with points being convert- ed from very tight angles and the net being rattled on more than one occa- sion from well outside the 20m line. Well done to all the girls and coaches on a very fine display. Full Team:- Chloe
Lane, Ella Fleming, Aisling Harty, Ciara Steele, Aisling McCarthy, Caoilfhionn Barry, Kate Butler, Ellen Hayes Nal- ly, Grainne Lynch, Amy Murphy, Aimee Morgan, Millie Bowles, April Cous- ins, Faye McGrath, Lilly Hayes Nally, Lucy Kene- ally, Ruby McGrath and Nicole McCarthy.
