Congratulations from Bride Rovers to the Cork Senior Ladies Footballers who won their eighth All-Ireland title in nine years last Sunday. This was an exceptional achievement by a very talented and dedicated bunch of players, who include our own Grace, Eleanor and Jen and whom we are very proud of.

EAST CORK MINOR LADIES FOOTBALL SEMI-FINAL

Bride Rovers 1-11 Glanmire 3-4

We won through to an East Cork final against Fermoy by beating Glanmire in a tight encounter in Rathcormac last week. Our scoring rate was down on previous matches against a well-organised Glanmire defensive unit but a goal from Meg Kelliher just after half-time was decisive and we managed to kick enough points in the second half to secure a win by the narrowest margin.

Match panel: Madison Parle, Erin O’Keeffe, Niamh Murphy, Grainne Noonan, Aoife O’Riordan, Mary Hazelwood (0-1), Laura Quirke, Trish O’Sullivan (0-1), Grace Culloty (0-5), Emma Roche (0-1), Katie Connor, Karen Sheehan (0-1), Jessica Howard, Elaine Culloty (0-2), Meg Kelleher (1-0), Sarah O’Flynn, Laura Pratt, Emma Barry, Maria O’Sullivan, Emma Hazelwood, Shauna O’Connell, Aine Cashman.
