MILTOWN Malbay GAA Grounds played host to a series of challenge games last Saturday between the Clare Ladies Football U16 and Minor panels.
As both teams prepare for their respective Munster A competitions against Cork and Kerry, (the Minors additionally have Tipperary in their group), it was clear both grades were eager to compete after four weeks of trials.
With some clever selection by Managers Kieran Harvey U16 and James Lafferty Minor both grades got an opportunity to display some very fast paced football over the three challenge games.
The well attended event showed the commitment and effort being poured into juvenile Ladies Football in Clare by players and mentors alike.
The Minors continue their training with a session in Quilty next Friday 18th February at 8pm.
The U16s will assemble again this Saturday, February 19, players will be notified of details by text, and they will then travel to Tipperary on February 26 to compete in a one day blitz against Tipperary, Waterford, Wexford and Galway in prepara tion for their opening Munster A Championship game against Cork on March 26.
The 2011 U16 panel will be selected after the blitz on the 26th February.
