Following good victories over Cromane and Beaufort in the last two weekends our u14 Girls welcomed MKL Gaels to Ballymac on Sunday last 6th September in Division One of the County League.

The first half proved high scoring with the away side leading at the break 3-8 to 3-2.Sarah West,Aoife Sweeney and Kate Collins scoring the Ballymac goals.

The third quarter saw us dominate possession but our failure to convert the many chances which came our way meant we still trailed going into the final quarter.

Final score MLK 6-9 Ballymac 4-3.

Best for Ballymac were goalkeeper Aoibheann Broderick who brought off some wonderful saves, Alice and Rose Brosnan,Alexa Weiss,Ashlinn Baily and Laura Kelly.

Ballymac u14 Girls made the journey to Waterville on Sunday evening last to take on Southern Gaels in Round 3 of the Trophyworld Division One Co League.

Our Girls then proceeded to play their best football of their season so far in quarter three and at the last water break had reduced the deficit to just three points(2-5 0-8).

The massive effort our team put in took its toll early in the final quarter as two Southern Gaels goals put them firmly in the driving seat and eventually they ran our winners on a 4-10 to 0-11 scoreline.

However our Girls can hold their heads high as they fought right to the end against a very good home team.
