Spa well represented in East Kerry U15 Girls team

East Kerry played Mid Kerry in the Kerry LGFA U15’s District County Final in Fossa this weekend.

Spa had four girls on the panel, Maggie May O’Donoghue, Lara O’Neill, Síofra Brosnan and Grace O’Shea.

It was a great display of football on a damp and very blustery day and that gusty wind definitely contributed to East Kerry’s wides in the first half which allowed Mid Kerry to edge in front at half time with a score of 2-09 to 2-05.

In the second half Mid Kerry seem to settle into a rhythm with great pace on the ball, excellent passing finished with accurate kicking between the posts. East Kerry never gave up though and fought back bravely, right up to the last kick of the game where they awarded and scored their second penalty. A Mid Kerry win never really looked in doubt though and the final score line was 4-16 to 4-09 to Mid Kerry.

It was a fantastic achievement for our Spa girls to make it onto the East Kerry panel. A massive well done to Maggie May, Lara, Síofra and Grace, you are all a credit to your family and Spa Club.
