Thank you to the 16 players who played for Corofin Ladies Seniors last Saturday in our League game against Kilkerrin Clonberne. Well done especially to the 9 underage players who turned out for us for the game. We put in a competitive performance against the county and Connacht champions – Kilkerrin-Clonberne. We were leading on several occasions, until midway through the second half when their greater panel numbers and the fresh legs of our opponents overwhelmed us. Final score was Kilkerrin-Clonberne 2-20 to Corofin 3-8.
Next training session for the senior panel is Saturday 25th April at 7pm in Belclare. Please make every effort to attend so that we can begin to increase the number of players who are match ready. The next Senior League fixture versus Clonbur is down to be played on 16th May.
