Senior/Junior Football

The senior and junior team have been training diligently since the end of the league campaign and as a unit have played 10 practice matches. The girls played Watergrasshill, Douglas, Bishopstown, Brian Borus, Carrigtwohill/Erins Own,Glanmire, Midleton, Donoughmore, Ballyduff and had some great performances.  All the matches were very competitive and all players got to play in all games boosting the panel for the upcoming championship.  Preparations continue for the round robin fixtures in the Senior A championship against Rosscarbery and Eire Og.  While both gained the upper hand over the Rovers girls in the league campaign earlier in the season it is envisaged these games will be closely contested with very little between the sides.  It is a busy time of year for the players with many of them doubling up to play with their respective underage teams and also Camogie.   When the attention turns to Senior football Roscarrbery are the first opponents on Sunday next 28th of July at 11am in Rosscarbery  and all support is very much appreciated by the girls.
