The U14 girls recorded a great win in the Division 3 league Shield final over Leitir Moir on Monday evening . Played in perfect conditions , the two teams served up a great game of football. Barna started brightly but failed to take their chances in front of goal and Leitir Moir took advantage of this and registered their first point. This seemed to spur the girls on and they played some great football with Caoimhe Faherty and Ruth Keady controlling midfield and this allowed Ciara Lynagh to score 2-3 without reply. Leitir Moir in a rare attack in the first half scored a goal just on the stroke of half time leaving a half time score of 2-3 to 1-1
The girls from the west stepped up the pace and with Niamh Folan posing a threat and was rewarded with one goal and one point , the Barna girls dug deep and some great defending from Orna Cunningham and Sarah Cahill set up the next scores for Barna with Ciara scoring four more points to leave Barna with 2-7 , with only minutes left Leitir Moir kept pushing for goals and secured one but that was their final score as Caoimhe Slemon and Sadhbh Kelly Greally provided goal line clearences. The final score was Barna 2-7 Leitir Moir 3-2. Great credit goes to all the team with a great team performance for winning the trophy and this was backed up with great support from family and friends whom turned out in large numbers. A special word of thanks to Nigel Slemon, Furbo for supplying drinks after the match and to Donnelly's for providing the food.
