Monaleen U14 Ladies Football County Novice Champions

29th May, 2009
Monaleen 4-4 St Patricks 2-7 (AET)

There were scenes of jubilation at Monaleen’s home pitch last Friday evening when their U14 girl’s team, in their inaugural year in the competition, won the Limerick U14 Girls Novice championship after a classic final against the favorites St Patrick, in a match played in ideal conditions in front of a large, appreciative crowd.


This was a classic contest between two evenly matched teams and a great advertisement for girl’s underage football with superb scores, near misses, incredible commitment and great sportsmanship on show. In the end it took 20 minutes of extra time to separate the teams with Monaleen’s greater fitness and never-say-die attitude just about getting them over the line at the final whistle.


Monaleen won the toss and elected to play with the aid of the strong breeze in the first half. This decision seemed justified when Megan O Meara playing at full-forward lashed the ball to the net in the first ten minutes after a nice piece of interplay with Caroline Crotty. This was quickly followed by a point from Crotty who along with O Meara and Caoimhe Ryan in the full-forward line was causing the St Pats defense no end of problems. However St Pats rallied with their two excellent midfielders beginning to exert their influence and two goals in quick succession followed by a brace of points saw them regain the lead with Monaleen’s only reply another point from O’Meara and a free from captain, Leah Nolan. The teams retired at half-time with StPats leading on a scoreline of 2-2 to 1-3.


Turning round to face the breeze and two points in arrears, Monaleens prospects did not look promising and the first ten minutes of the 2nd half was spent desperately defending their lines with Aine Hegarty a colossus at full-back ably supported by Aoife O Leary and Alison McDevitt in the full back line and the excellent Megan Donegan in goal. In this period, St Pats tacked on a couple of points to extend their lead with Monaleen staying in touch through a free from Leah Nolan. Slowly however the tide of the game began to turn with the Monaleen half-back line of Penny O Hehir, Emily McCarthy and Orlaith O Leary thundering into the game and with Leah Nolan and Shannon Power now getting on top at mid-field, Monaleen began to monopolise possession and when 2nd half substitute Robyn Gleeson scored a superb goal followed soon after by another from Megan O Meara, it looked like the cup was finally heading to Monaleen. But credit to St Pats who came back down the field and with practically the last kick of the game leveled the match with a superb point from all of 40 yards. Extra-time was played out in a whirl of excitement with Monaleen well on top at this stage but missing a host of chances through poor shooting and heroic defending. The Monaleen half-forward line of Karen Fabian, Danielle Costelloe and Sarah Geraghty was now launching wave after wave of attack but still the match-winning score would not come and just when it looked like this final would have to go to a replay, Caroline Crotty latched on to a loose ball in the St Pats goalmouth and finished to the net to send the home support into ecstasy. The referee blew the final whistle on the kick-out and Monaleen had prevailed on a final scoreline of Monaleen 4-4 St Pats 2-7.

This was a victory for heart, skill and a refusal to be beaten attitude that brought this panel through a tight semi-final and final in the same week. All 18 members of the panel played their part in this success and subs Zoe Brophy and Emma Quilter played very significant roles in the teams march to the final.

Team: Megan Donegan, Aoife OLeary, Aine Hegarty, Alison McDevitt, Penny O Hehir, Emily McCarthy, Orlaith OLeary, Leah Nolan, Danielle Costelloe, Karen Fabian, Shannon Power, Sarah Geraghty, Caroline Crotty, Megan O Meara, Caoimhe Ryan
Subs: Robyn Gleeson, Zoe Brophy, Emma Quilter

29th April, 2009
Monaleen U14s became the County Féile Peil Champions for 2009 for the first time in 10 years when they defeated Mungret Saint Paul’s last Saturday afternoon (18th April) in a sun drenched Gaelic Grounds.

Playing an exciting brand of attacking football they took the game to their opponents and were comfortably ahead at half time. They survived a strong comeback, including a converted penalty from their opponents in the second half but were once again taking the game to their rivals at the end and ran out deserving winners on a score line of 3-7 to 3-5.

Monaleen now travel to Kildare on the weekend of the July 3rd 4th and 5th where they will represent Limerick in the all Ireland U14 Féile Peil na nÓg finals.
