Galway's four former Ireland soccer stars still doing it on the LGFA club scene

More than 50 caps for Ireland but ladies football still close to Méabh De Búrca's heart too

Flashback: Méabh De Búrca, second from left, with fellow Galwegians Dora Gorman, Julie-Ann Russell and Niamh Fahey and a maroon and white corner flag which was used when they were playing for the Republic of Ireland at an Algarve Cup game in 2012.

While injury has kept her out of action in recent weeks, former Republic of Ireland women’s soccer international Méabh De Búrca has enjoyed being part of the continued development of Salthill/Knocknacarra in the past couple of years.

Having previously lined out for St Michael’s and Salthill at underage level in Galway, De Búrca later found herself returning to the former due to the latter not having a team that catered for female adult players.
