'Relief' for Cahill at UL Bohs' second title on the trot

The tighthead prop missed out on the championship win last term.

UL Bohemian’s drive for a third Energia Women’s AIL title in a row next season is already alive but the league’s player of the year Eilis Cahill is delighted just to have contributed to one.

Having missed the Limerick club’s triumph over Railway Union at Aviva Stadium in the 2024 final through injury, the tighthead prop made up for lost time in the season just past to help UL Bohs return to Lansdowne Road for a rematch with their Dublin rivals last month.
