The girls from Scoil Mhuire N.S. participated in the East Limerick Cumann na mBunscol 7-a-side Girls’ Gaelic Football Final versus Ahane in the Gaelic Grounds, Limerick on Monday 22nd October 2018. The girls played for each other with great heart and no little skill during the match. Unfortunately for the Murroe girls however, Ahane proved too strong on the day and they were victorious at the final whistle. Understandably, the girls were very disappointed with the result but they can feel very proud of themselves for reaching the final and for performing to the best of their abilities on the day.
After the finals were over, all of the children repaired to the nearby Supermac’s for some refreshments.
Again, many thanks to Siobhán Flynn [mother of 5th class pupil and footballer, Laura] for having everything ready for us when we arrived in Supermac’s. The food [and especially the ice-cream] helped to ease the pain of defeat. Hopefully the next time we dine there, we’ll be celebrating a victory.
