Skilful Ladies Get the Year Off to a Flying Start
After watching the exciting All Ireland Ladies football finals in Croke Park at the weekend, it was the turn of the girls in 5th & 6th class to put their footballing talents on display. 23 teams in total took part in the opening blitz of the Allianz Cumann na mBunscol GAA calendar. The schools that took part were Ravenswell, St Peters, Scoil Chualann, St Laurences, St Brigids, St Kevins, Newtownmounkennedy PS, Greystones ET, Ashford, Roundwood, Gaelscoil na Clocha Liatha, St Fergals, Moneystown, Kilmacanogue, Kilcoole, St Pats & Nun’s Cross. It was great to so many different schools taking part and promoting Gaelic football for girls. There was great display of skills on show with examples of excellent shooting, high-fielding and great teamwork. Thanks to all the teachers involved for helping with refereeing and to Bray Emmets GAA club for the use of their facilities. The next girls’ football participation blitz will be on 17th October for 3rd & 4th class.
