yea hope all goes well over the weekend i will be there cheering on mayo.so up mayo
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.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.
