U11 Girls Gaelic Football
The U11 Girls Gaelic Football Team for the school had a fantastic season.We first played Ballymany and we only just beat them. Luckily that match was a home game. Our second match was against Monasterevin and we beat them. This match was away and we were on a winning streak now. A week later we played Kildare Town. We knew that they would be tough but we gladly beat them,this was also a home game on our school pitch.
We played Kill, this match was away.We came home after this match victorious and keeping our winnng streak alive which meant that we had not lost a game yet but were still training hard to try and beat Clane the best team in the league. The day finally came and we felt ready to take them on. Once again we came home victorious and beat them by only a goal. This meant we were through to the semi-final. We were all estatic.
It was the day before the semi-final. The team was picked, the coaches were ready, we were ready it was time to go into battle. It was the next day, the day of the semi-finals. We were ready to take on Monasterevin for the second time. We were all very nervous thinking about reaching the final. We were all absolutely delighted to beat this amazing team. This meant that we were one step closer to be coming county champions.
A few days before the final we figured out that we were playing Ballymany. We were so nervous and feeling the pressure and it was still 3 days before the final. It was the day of our final and our captain was chosen. It was Zara Hurley and Jenna Hegarty as our co-captain. We had amazing supporters and we were super excited to just be crowned county champions yet again .
