U13 GIRLS CO.CHAMPIONSHIP FINAL Dr Crokes  6 03 Rathmore 3 06  If one ever looked for an example that goals win games then this was it. Olivia Dawson put Crokes ahead with a point after three minutes, however Rathmore hit back scoring 1 02 without reply. Dr Crokes responded well and the next four scores were all goals from Olivia Dawson (3) and Sheodhna O Donoghue (1) to leave the half time score 4 01 to 1 03.

In the second half Crokes were under severe pressure from a very well orgsanised Rathmore team, and were it not for outstanding defending from our backline in particular Annie Potts, Maggie Horan and the outstanding Kayleigh Cronin the end result could have been different . However again this team showed tremendous resolve and stepped up another gear. Olivia Dawson and Sheodhna O Donoghue scored 1 02 each to capture the u 13 County Championship. This was a fabulous team performance where all the girls played their hearts out.

Leah O Shea accepted the cup on behalf of her team and paid particular tribute to Paula and Catherine for all their efforts during the year. They have now captured the U12 and U13 county championship which bodes well for the future of ladies football within the club
