May 08, 2009
Féile Fever.‘Rain, rain, go away…’ was probably the phrase on most people’s lips during the past week if they were in any way involved in the Everbuild Féile 2009. The forecasts for the weekend were every bit as gloomy as the economy. The prophets of doom were predicting the worst case scenario. E-mails flew backwards and forwards amongst the Dublin Ladies Board Executive. All-weather pitches were in the news, the word cancellation was me..

It was end to end with St.Margarets taking their scores with slight more frequency than Clontarf. Players from both teams ran their lungs to bursting on what was a very warm day but the standard of play and the passages of play were ex..
