This was a brilliant team performance from the girls of Sean Mac Cumhaills led by a brilliant captain Eileen Sweeney who kicked the point of the game from all of 40 yards in the opening minutes to put the girls two points up.
Glenswilly came back strongly but struggled to open up our defence led by Tara Burke, Soibhan Griffin, Ellie Mcdaid, Jody Laverty and the simply superb Amy Laverty who led the defence with clinical tackles and Sublime distribution turning defence into attack time and time again.
Our midfielders Zara Cassidy and Sinead Gallagher worked tirelessly, winning a lot of possession.

Katie Laverty and the simply sublime Aoife Kelly who scored four superb points during the game worked tirelessly, the half time score was 2-5 to 0-2 to MacCumhaills.
Glenswilly came back strong in the second half, but with Holly Gillespie simply outstanding in goals, they could not get the goal they needed to get back in the game.
