Division 4 Final
Parnells 1-04
Ballyboden St Enda's 1-02
A youthful Parnells summoned a strong closing quarter as Rebecca Carroll's thumping goal six minutes from time immediately countered an Olivia Taylor to swing the title the Coolock side's way.
It was a classicly even Feile encounter, the momentum to-ing and fro-ing throughout. A couple of mazy Jessica McGrane runs forged two early points for Boden. But Tiegan Ryan McCluskey proved a constant threat and she got Parnells on the board in the ninth minute and put her side just on half-time, her couple of points sandwiching a Rebecca Lawlor effort.
Ryan McCluskey also saw a point-blank rocket deflected onto the bar for what would have been a powerful goal.
Boden were first to strike in the second half when Taylor wriggled free of the last defender and drop-kicked into the roof of the net. Carroll, though, responded instantly to earn the title, one which they will hope to back up next year with over half of the panel still eligible.
