The Kilmeena girls lined out in the first round of the U14 C championship on Sunday afternoon against neighbours Westport. Due to a number of the regular U14s not being available a large part of the Kilmeena team was made up of our U12 girls who were playing at this level for the first time. It was always going to be a challenge against a good Westport team who started strongly opening up an early lead which they held onto until the final whistle. However the Kilmeena girls showed true determination and some fine performances and never gave up. It is a credit to the U12 girls for making the step up and for playing so well. Well done to Westport on their win.
Kilmeena 1 - 2 11 - 7 Westport
