The O'loughlins Under 10's played their first home game of the season on Wednesday the 28th of May. Unlike their first outing, this game was more one sided and unfortunately, not in our favour. St. Brigids were very strong and had a large panel which meant that they never tired on the warm evening. Despite great efforts in defence by Abby Ware, Grace Sheridan and Faye Fennelly, St. Brigids got scores on the board early on. Maebh Richardson had a great game and relieved a lot of pressure many times by sending the ball into the forwards. Ava Vaughan and Riona Crowley had a lot of work to do to keep up with the girls in blue in the centre and they did well. Eva Prendergast battled well in the second half, as did Ava O'Grady and Tara O'Keeffe. Emma Flyson White did very well in attack and defence. Sinead Dowling and newcomer Sara Ayoup along with Riona very nearly got a score in the 2nd half. Even though the scoreline didn't suit the girls in green, it was good preparation for our upcoming blitz in Young Irelands.
