After great efforts to scrape a team together for this age group, we were still 3 players short going into Sundays match, luckily for us Charleville were in the same position, and so the match went ahead 8 a side. (this included playing one of our nine year olds!) However they proved themselves a side worthy of sticking with as they worked their legs off to keep up with their opponents who looked mainly older girls. We eventually went down 3-1 (and what a good goal it was from Shauna Carroll) but fantastic effort girls. We particularly want to thank Leanne and Joanne for playing at such short notice - great little defenders too.... Infact I was so impressed I want to mention them all..... Our fantasic goalie who definately saved us a number of times Shauna Treacey, hard working Niamh and Michelle in midfield, young Charlotte who really enjoyed her match going forward. Lastly even younger Caoimhe who ran rings around their defenders.
But this team really needs the support of some other local girls to keep the team viable, so please anyone able to play or just wishing to try and train with us, come along, no soccer experience necessary!
