Feis after nGleann 2023 in Dunloy
Under 16 Feis Cup Camogie Final
Cushendall Ruairi Og turned in an impressive display when to beat Belfast Camogie in the final of the Under 16 Camogie at Feis na nGleann in Dunloy in Friday evening.
Last year’s All Ireland Feile winning team were in unstoppable form against the St Paul’s-Gort na Mona-Sarsfields combination, winning by a big score in the end. Their forward division was unstoppable as they picked off points from all angles, and had the game won a long way out.
Belfast Camogie started promisingly and despite playing up the slope, on the back pitch, they looked dangerous in the early stages, but they came up against a rock solid Ruairi Og defense who were giving nothing away. In Maeve Devlin, Saorlaith Brennan, Orlaith McNulthy, Aimee Ferris and Orlaith Walker they had top class players.
Cushendall had two early points from Amy McAlister and Niamh McNeill, before Eva McNeill got their first goal in the third minutes. Further goals followed from brilliant center forward Eva McNeill as they raced to a 4-12 to 0-1 half time lead, the Belfast Camogie score coming from Amy Ferris.
The goals kept coming after the change of ends as Cushendall pushed home their advantage, Niamh McNeill grabbing a great goal on the volley while Cliodhna Thompson got one, plus a few superb points. Niamh McNeill added a couple more as the Cushendall girls claimed the silverware in emphatic style.
