Camogie team makes debut

Monday, 24 March 2008

LAST Saturday week (March 15) was a historic day for a West Dublin GAA Club.
The under 12 camogie team, representing Erin go Bragh from Littlepace, Dublin 15, played their first competitive match against St Oliver Plunkett Eoghan Ruadh.
At a windswept Huntersrun, the girls showed great skill and determination and nearly scored just before half time following a great run by Amy O’Hara. Eoghan Ruadh went ahead midway through the first half.
In what was an exciting game, Erin go Bragh got the score back to 2-1 with 10 minutes to go.
Rachel Carr commanded the Erin go Bragh goal and pulled off two fine saves to keep the game on a knife-edge.
Late on, Eoghan Ruadh broke away following a good attack by the outstanding Erin go Bragh midfielder Erica Manning to seal a 3-1 victory for the visiting team.
Erin go Bragh would like to thank St Oliver Plunkett Eoghan Ruadh for making it a great day for all involved.
The girls from Erin go Bragh will have taken a great deal of confidence from this game and can look forward to a good league campaign.
New players are always welcome. Contact Dermot on 087-9323084 or visit www.eringobraghgaa.ie for more details about the club.
