Loughgiel Shamrocks Camogiers do it again
26th October 2015

Congratulations to the Loughgiel Shamrocks Camogie team winners of the Ulster Senior Club Camogie Final 2015.

 

A keenly contested Ulster Final unfolded as the Antrim & Derry Senior champions lined out in Armagh to do battle to see who would be crowned the queens of Ulster.Slaughtneil drew first blood through a converted free by captain Louise Dougan. Sharp shooter Lucia McNaugton followed not long after to put the score on the board fo...r the ladies in red & white. Both teams showed great character and some nerves both forcing wides at opposite sides of the pitch.

 

In the fifteenth minute of the game Racquel McCarry rifled the back of the Slaughtneil net after rising heighest to catch an accurate pass from Lucia McNaughton. No sooner had Loughgiel supporters sat down slaughtneils skipper Dougan raised the green flag for the Derry side to level the game once again. Both teams exchanged points at either end but Loughgiel edged in front and as Julie O'Neill blew the whistle on an absorbing first half the Shamrocks had a 2 point lead with a half time score of 1-4 to 1-2.

 

Slaughtneil started the brighter of the two teams in the second half accurately hitting the ball above the Loughgiel crossbar to narrow the score once again. Loughgiel began to dominate being first to every tackle and ball and went 6 up with 15 mins to go. Slaughtneil kept in touch through Louise Dougan being accurate from the deadball but the Derry ladies just couldn't bridge the gap. Solid defending from player of the match Laura Connolly and Loughgiel veteran Siobhan 'Tin' McCloskey kept the girls from the oak leaf county at bay. At the other end of the pitch Caitrin Dobbin, Aisling McFadden and Charlene Campbell added to the shamrocks score line.

 

Slaughtneil rallied late in the game and at the very death won a 21 yard free but Dougan this time was to be denied by a resolute Loughgiel defence as the ball was cleared Julie O'Neill called time to a rapturous applause of the Loughgiel supporters. Loughgiel seniors now join their juniors in All Ireland Semi Finals in this the centenary of Loughgiel Shamrocks GAC.

I could fly out and buy one rolex replica uk and fly home quicker than you take to reply to emails and all I want to do hublot replica sale is place a rolex replica uk order, what is the problem. Its now over ten days since I last heard from you. I sent you the two omega replica sale order numbers that I require but you have not replied. why. I am sorry but I cannot place a replica cartier replica uk order with your company for further rolex replica uk because you are quite frankly. I know I will have to suffer the damaged hublot replica watches you sent me but I think it is better to lose on one than many.
