The junior team had their first league game of the season on Sunday in the camogie field The Ragg against Fethard. They put on a fine display in all parts of the pitch. It took us two games to defeat Fethard in the championship last year but we managed it in one on Sunday. All of our ladies played well, frustrating the Fethard team from their forwards through to their goalie. Nicole Walsh opened the scoring with a point from a free, followed by a goal and a point from play. Mary Bradshaw then scored a goal from play. Fethard then got two points one from play the other a free. Nicole Walsh then got another point from play leaving the score at half time 2-3 to 0-2. The second half commenced with a goal from Nicole Walsh followed by a goal and two points from Fethard. Nicole Walsh then got another point from play followed by a point from play by Joanne Cowan who came on as a sub, Nicole Walsh finished up the scoring for Borrisoleigh with a point from a free. Fethard finished their scoring with a point from play which left the result at full time 3-6 to 1-5. Well done girls a great start to the competitive season.
