CARRICKCRUPPEN v BOSCO
On 12th July while the Orangemen marched and everyone else went to the beach or organised a BBQ, the Bosco U14 girls played an entertaining challenge match with Carrickcruppen. This was part of their preparation for the u14 County Armagh Championship final with Silverbridge later in July.
Without a bowler hat in sight the match proved to be of very high quality with the Bosco scorers being Aine McCabe 1:01, Orlagh Burke 0:01 and Dervla McGovern 1:00. The player of the match was undoubtedly Roisin Kelly in the Bosco goal who pulled off several great saves during the match. FINAL SCORE Carrickcruppen 3: 04 Bosco 2:02
The U14 girls now commence their own summer league on Sunday 21st July with a home match against Teconnaught at Jack Mackin Park at 1.00pm
