Wall wins it for Ballymacarbry

The third annual Munster Ladies Gaelic Football sevens tournament took place in Clonakilty on Saturday where 18 teams battled it out in both the senior and junior categories.

Held at the Clonakilty GAA Complex in Ahamilla for the second year in succession there was a redraw in the senior category, with intermediate teams Listowel Emmets and Comeragh Rangers joining the six existing teams. Group One contained Rosscarbery, Listowel Emmets, Donoughmore and three-in-a-row seekers Ballymacarbry, while Group Two saw Clonakilty, Comeragh Rangers, Mourneabbey and St Vals do battle in a series of physical encounters.

The junior competition was filled with excitement throughout the day, with both groups containing an array of talent. Group One saw Boherbue, Clonakilty, Tadhg McCarthaigh, Muintir Bhaire and Carrigtwohill fight for their semi-final places. After an enticing couple of hours of nip-and-tuck action, the two teams to progress to the final were Boherbue and Glanmire. They partook in a fantastic final with Boherbue clinching the win 3-10 to 3-4.
