Great vision from the Cork League. I think that this will become the girls version of the "Kennedy Cup" in years to come.
Waterford have some nice players and had a young team last year. Cork also have some good players and have been training for this competition. Galway have Salthill Devon girls to call on so I assume that they will be strong. Limerick is divided (Lim + GV) so aren't as strong as they should be. Midlands - don't know, but Beallnamulla have always produced good players. Tipp might be a dark horse - don't know how they got on in the U14 interleague matches played earlier this year (against waterford and Kilkenny I think). Mayo were a big team last year.... I think that Waterford will give everyone a run for their money.
The Cork League has been a very progressive force in developing the game at underage level in terms of encouraging more players and tournaments with a pan Munster focus ,these type of innovations. I have co-operated with them on numerous occasions in the past and Women's football in the area is in very safe hands!
Looking forward to the weekend, should be a great display of underage soccer. The U16 & U18 will be playing on Monday, think it is in Ballinhassig. I would like to wish all teams the best of luck. College till I die, thanks for the kind words re Cork Soccer. :ball: We are constantly trying to improve things here. :) :)
Congrats to the Corky Girls and every success. Bro. in law's club Bealnamulla are going down there too as part of a Midlands League squad I think.
Last years tournament was a huge success and I'm delighted that Cork have taken it upon themselves to continue it this year. I agree with CTID, Cork have done a lot of work to develop their underage structures. Watch this space for future Cork teams in national competitions...
Well the weekend was truly a success with 8 county league teams battling it out for the title. Galway played Cork in the Cup final while Limerick played Mayo in the Shield. The galway/Cork game was a cracker finished nil all after full time. The game went straight to penalties and Galway won the competition on a 9-8 scoreline.
The U16 & U18 played on Monday, unfortunatly all other U18 teams who had committed to enter pulled out at the last minute. The U16 competition was won by Limerick who were a very fine and well drilled side. Cork U16's came runners up. Well done to all in involved, another great display of football.
