Congratulations to the U21 Camogie team who defeated St. Vincent’s on a score line of  Naomh Bríd 1-15 Vincent’s 1-13 on Friday night last in Abbotstown to win the B Final. 

The girls rallied from 1-3 down in the early minutes, leveling it at 1-8 by halftime. It was tight for the last 15, but they took charge in the final 5 minutes, scoring two points to secure the win.  Well done to Isuelt Costello, who was named Player of the Match.
