Congratulations to Cromane who defeated Scartaglin in the Educate.ie U14 Division 3 Final on Sunday. Played in glorious sunshine in Miltown/Castlemaine, the players made light work of the heat & gave a great exhibition. The opening score of the game came from Scartaglin but Cromane replied soon after with one of their own from midfield Sadhbh Shaughnessy. Scartaglin who were beginning to come on top got 2 goals to pull ahead. However the Mid Kerry side replied with two of their own from Shannon Foley & Cora Joy. Cromane were starting to find their rhythm & after adding a few points they added a 3rd goal from Sadhbh Shaughnessy to lead at half time Cromane 3-05 Scartaglin 2-03. After trading points in the early stages Scartaglin were awarded a penalty but however failed to convert. Shortly after Cromane hit for their 4th goal from Ailbhe Clifford but Scart showed a never say die attitude & replied with 1-02. Cromane sub Amy Dunphy barely on a minute hit a great goal & with Cromane getting some good points they pulled away from Scartaglin, who got the final score of the game a point in dying minutes.

Niamh O’Connor Captain was delighted to accept the Educate.ie U14 Div 3 title on behalf of her team from County Secretary Mary Courtney.
