Causeway Coast & Glens Netball Tournament
19th May 2022
St.Brigid’s netball team showed their skill, tenacity and teamwork skills as they reached another tournament final.
The girls were outstanding throughout, topping our group with five wins and no goals conceded. Castleroe were our opponents in the quarter final and a convincing win against the Coleraine team set up an exciting encounter with our great hockey rivals, Millstrand. The match, thankfully, went our way and a hard fought 3-0 result secured us a place in the final against a fast and physical St. Columba’s team. What an achievement!
The final did not disappoint the many spectators who stayed to watch. All the girls, from both teams, committed fully to a thrilling, end to end, ‘edge of your seat’ performance, and although the result was a 1-0 win to the Kilrea team, our girls put in the performance of the tournament. This was the first goal they conceded all tournament, a fantastic achievement in itself, and the camaraderie, talent and determination on display from our amazing girls were second to none.
It has been a pleasure coaching such a wonderfully committed, hardworking and skilful bunch of girls. Everyone at St. Brigid’s is so proud of you all. Congratulations Maisie N (our captain), Emily (vice-captain), Maisie B, Katie, Reenie, Eve, Kiera, Cassie and Shona.
