Second Year Hockey Friendly against Clontarf 6th October
After Tuesday’s defeat, we were looking forward to redeeming ourselves and improving our performance against Clontarf. The game started well with a quick goal for St Mary’s by Rose Roy. We worked hard in the mid field and the backs were put under pressure with a few penalty corners by Clontarf. Some great saves by goalkeeper Tara McCabe kept our lead. And two more quick goals by Rose Roy and Mai Perkins gave us a strong lead at half time. The second half was tough and Clontarf continued to look dangerous. Some great work from the midfield players set up another goal by Mai. Clontarf replied with a goal of their own and continued to keep pressuring the backs. A final goal by Rose before the whistle concluded the game 5-1. Lots of room still for improvement and lots more games to come! Well done girls!
