Under 13 girls update
After a camogie weekend, attention switched to the big ball. Both teams picked up wins in their opening championship matches so hopes were high to continue the title charges. 💪💪
Unfortunately, the division 8 girls game was called off at late notice. Their opponents, Craobh Chiarain's, were unable to secure a referree, so the game couldn't go ahead.
Focus was on the division 1 girls who made the trip across the m50 to take on Ballinteer St John's in Marley Park.
BSJ had won division 2 at a cantor so were keen to test their mettle against their illustrious opponents.
In monsoon conditions, BSJ started fast and struck two goals inside the first 5 mins. Finians settled into the game and kept the scoreboard ticking over with some well taken points. An end to end first half ended with Finians holding a slender 4 point lead.
In the second half, Finians had the advantage of the strong breeze so put BSJ under extreme pressure, particularly at their restarts. A flurry of goals followed for Finians. The girls kept their opponents at bay and finished up comfortable winners. 👏
Two wins from two means that with the other results in the group, Finians have secured a home semi final already, with one game left in the group. 🤞🤞
