DIVISION 4

Division 4 match this Saturday, February 1 at 12.30pm v Bruff in the Crescent Comprehensive, Limerick. Please ensure you reply to Mike and Trish if you have are on the squad and unable to play. Both Mike and Trish put in a huge effort organizing the matches so a text back will really help when trying to make arrangements.

The team had a great day out last Saturday in Clonakilty though sadly lost in the end. With only 10 players, the girls gave a terrific performance with Ondine Roche in goals, Trisha Coughlan, Niamh Ryan, Ruth Herlihy and Kathryn Buckley making up the back line. While Sarah Jane O’Riordan, Georgia Mai McGrath and Elaine O’Donnell made up the midfields, and Sarah Noonan and Grace Kelly played as forwards. Playing against eleven players, Fermoy kept Clonakilty to 1 goal in the first half but unfortunately losing 3-0 by the final whistle. Many thanks to Eugene and Alan who came down to Clonakilty with the girls.
