On Sunday the Under 13 Girls took part in the blitz at Londonderry Park. Only one team was allowed to enter and a couple of our regular girls were missing due to other commitments. Nevertheless, 12 eager girls took on 5 matches and played their socks off. We are in the unfortunate position that we…
Common sense has prevailed! The venue for the Irish Trophy Final on 7 May against Queens has been changed to Havelock Park in Banbridge. Time yet to be confirmed. We are still intending to run a supporters bus. Watch this or other social media spaces for further details!!
