Valiant U14 Girls narrowly miss out on football final

Yesterday, our U14 Girls competed in the Integrated Futsal Finals, held at the Newforge Sports Complex in Belfast.

Not for the first time this season, our girls played well across the tournament, including group stage matches against Strangford College, Hazelwood College and Fort Hill. Kacie was outstanding in goals, while Caoimhe, Katie and Evie were solid and dependable in defence. Sienna and Abbie shared midfield duties in what proved to be a physically demanding morning, battling hard in every game. Up front, Isabella was in top form, adding another seven goals in an already prolific season.

The semi-final saw Shimna face Hazelwood once again. Despite our girls striking the post several times during the game, the outcome was ultimately decided on penalties, with Shimna narrowly missing out.

An excellent day of football and a fitting way to round off a brilliant season for our girls. Their time will come again.
