Junior D Cup Final
St Brigids 3-20 Young Irelands 3-2
St Brigids emerged as Junior D Cup winners after an excellent performance against Young Irelands in the final played in pleasant conditions in Kells Road on Sunday morning. St Brigids started with the backing of the wind elements and with Tara Cody & Molly Conroy very much to the fore, they forged an impressive 2-11 to 1-0 half time lead with the Young Irelands goal coming from a penalty in the 20th minute from Nessa Farrell. Their forwards were very accurate throughout and they continued to drive on throughout the second period with Molly Conroy and Tara Cody adding further scores to open the gap to 3-16 to 1-1 by the 50th minute. In truth the results never looked in doubt as the St Brigids defence led by player of the match Edwina Keane and Chloe Teehan repelled many Young Irelands attacks in both halves. The Gowran girls to their credit fought to the end and they did score two fine goals in the closing minutes to put a better picture on the final scoreline..
