Kilmaley NS 4-2 – Broadford NS 2-1 at Cusack Park, Ennis
KILMALEY NS crowned what has been an historic year for them on the hurling and camogie fiels when claiming this title at GAA headquarters on Thursday afternoon. Before going into action in this camogie final, the boys in the schools had claimed their title the day before while success also came the school’s way in the Sevens county final in Clarecastle back in March.
In this final they stood firm in the second half against a brave Broadford side that threw everything into it when playing with the wind and trying to claw back what was an 11point half-time deficit.
In the first half Kilmaley dominat- ed with Saoirse Glynn’s long-range frees causing havoc in the Broadford defece. Glynn goaled as early as the second minute while another free two minutes later was deflected to the net to give Kilmaley a brilliant start. Two more Glynn goals ensured that Kilmaley led by 4-2 to 1-0 at half-time.
Broadford showed great resolve to battle back – their first goal came on the stroke of half-time, while they bagged 1-1 in the second half, but that seven points was as close as they got to Kilmaley. Flann Howard.
