Under 16 Leinster Semi-Final – played in Kilcock, Co. Kildare 10th May 2009 11am.

Kildare 3-4 Meath 1-4

Kildare advance to the Leinster Under 16 Final at the hands of Meath. The Meath Team lost out to Kildare by six points in Kilcock on Sunday morning the 10th May 09. It has to be said that Meath played some good camogie and had a great share of the possession but failed to convert scores to take the game. The Meath defence line played well and in particular Ellen Duigan in goals stood out throughout the game. She was helped by Suzue Gartland at centre half back, Kristina Troy at centre field and Jayne Martin & Katie King in the forwards.

Kildare were first to score with a point coming from Melissa Lyons and after a scramble in the Meath goal mouth where goalie Ellen Duigan had saved the initial attack the ball fell and Kildare’s full forward eventually finished it to the Meath net. Aoibheann Leahy got Meath’s opening score a point from play. Kildare’s sharp shooter Sinead Cummins was a danger with every attack as she grabbed a goal and a point in quick succession in the 20th minute. Mellissa O’neill pointed from a free for Kildare before Meath’s Kristina Troy secured a rasper of a goal in the first minute of injury time of the first half to leave four points between the teams. Kildare 2-3 Meath 1-2.

When play resumed Meath were first to score with a well taken point after a solo run by Kristina Troy. Meath’s Coaimhe McDermott playing at full back made some vital clearances and again Meath’s goalie read every ball very well as she made some great saves. Suzue Gartland never gave up she was determined to keep the ball out of her defence and put her forwards on the attack. Katie King pointed from play for Meath putting two points between the teams. Meath had the upper hand for the most of the second half but could not secure scores. The winner for Kildare came in the 53rd minute a goal from No. 13 Sinead Cummins and this was followed by the last score of the game a point from Melissa Lyons for Kildare. Meath were disappointed as they knew they were good enough to win but were unfortunate on the day.
