Hard luck to our U16 girls who lost out by two points to Newmarket in the final today. It was a close game with Newmarket getting the opening score which was soon followed by a goal from Lauren Cusack. Both sides exchanged points leaving the score 1-3 to 0-4 at halftime.

Newmarket opened the scoring in the second half adding 1-1 to their tally. Evie Scanlon registered a pointed free for her side. The sea saw pattern continued with Newmarket scoring two goals. Clarecastle quickly replied with goals through Lauren Meehan & Evie Scanlon.

As the game entered the final quarter Evie Scanlon pointed free levelled the score which was the last score for the Magpies. Despite a tremendous defensive effort Newmarket were rewarded two frees which gave their side a two point lead to finish the game with a win.
