U13 Ladies Division 2 League
St. Josephs 4-4, Wolfe Tones 3-7
On Monday evening the Joes U13 ladies travelled to Drogheda to play an unbeaten Wolfe Tones side. In a very competitive game the sides shared the league points, Joes 4-4, Wolfe Tones 3-7.
The Joes settled quickly with an early goal from Aoife O’Reilly. The Joes extended their lead with a superb point from play from Anna McDonnell followed by a pointed free from McDonnell to put the Joes 1-2 ahead after 7mins.
Great defensive work from Emma Delaney, Emma Jane Shearman and Martina Jelinic held the home team to a single point in that first half. The Joes dominated possession thanks to the hard work of Anna McDonnell, Freya Arthur, Lucy Reynolds and Grace O’Donoghue. On 17mins a well worked move sent Anna McKeever through for a second Joes goal.
Up front Jenna Mulligan, Caitlin McArdle and Aine Ward kept pressure on the Wolfe Tones kick outs. Aine Ward added a point for the Joes on 23mins with Caitlin McArdle on target with a third Joes goal on 26mins, the Joes ahead by 3-3 to 0-1 at the break.
If the Joes controlled the first half, it was the Wolfe Tones who dominated the second half scoring with an early goal, adding two further goals later in the half. A point from Anna McDonnell on 41mins left three between the sides. The Joes fought to the end and were rewarded when Alicia Loughran hit a fourth goal with the last kick of the game. The final score St. Josephs 4-4, Wolfe Tones 3-7.
St. Josephs: Fianna McCrink, Martina Jelinic, Emma Delaney, Emma Jane Shearman, Lucy Reynolds, Freya Arthur, Alicia Loughran (1-0), Grace O’Donoghue, Anna McDonnell (0-3), Jenna Mulligan, Anna McKeever (1-0), Caitlin McArdle (1-0), Aoife O’Reilly (1-0), Aine Ward (0-1), Jessica Mason, Carrie Linden, Ada Lynch, Erin Ward, Aoibh O’Neill, Erin Kelly, Hannah McMahon, Ellie McEvoy, Ruby Carolan.

About the Joes
Naomh Seosamh CLG was formed in 1961 with the amalgamation of the Dromiskin Unknowns and the Darver Volunteers to provide one club to represent the whole parish. The first major success for the club was winning the 1971 Junior Championship and many years of hard work came to fruition in 1996 when we won our first Senior Championship. There have been many other notable successes over the years, not least a second SFC in 2006.
In 2019 we formed a new Ladies football club under the “OneClub” initiative of the GAA and LGFA.
We are a club with a proud tradition and hope for many more years of success!
