Dublin U12s looking forward to Leinster Blitz on Sat 22nd Sept
- Sep 18,2012
The Dublin U12 Development Squad will provide four teams to compete in the Leinster U12 Blitz in Carlow this Saturday, 22 Sept.
The players came together in April of this year and are enjoying the experience of playing football with girls they only met previously on opposing club sides. 86 players from 39 clubs will wear the sky blue colours. The standard of football on display is excellent and improving all the time.
In their first competitive outing at the June Leinster blitz, Dublin achieved runners-up in Division 1 and were champions of Division 3 which was a remarkable achievement for teams just having come together. More importantly, it proved to be an enjoyable and rewarding experience for all concerned.
The panels are managed by Noel O Leary (Kilmacud Crokes), Fintan Keeling (Fingallians), Carol Conway (Trinity Gaels), Claire O' Dea (Clan na Gael), Mark Kelly (St Maurs), Manus Mc Aleer (Na Fianna), Paul Hamill (Foxrock/Cabinteely), Siobhain Allen (Robert Emmets), Gabby Harding (Ballyboden Wanderers), Paul Mc Grath (Scoil Ui Chonaill), Noel Lynn (Ballyboden SE), Niall Murphy (Naomh Barrog),
We wish the panels and Mentors an enjoyable and fun-filled tournament this weekend.
