Ladies make club history


The clubs ladies team have really set the standard this season while securing an unprecedented treble of Premier league, Premier cup and on Sunday April 27th last they completed the treble when Theresa Mulcaire lifted the Ladies Desmond Cup.

As in the league cup final Abbeyfeale United provided the opposition with Ballingarry coming out on top on a 2-1 scoreline. Well done to the players and management of Aidan Quaid, Anthony Brosnan and Michael Mulcahy. Also, congratulations to Joanne O’Gorman who was voted Desmond Ladies Player of the Year.

Also on Sunday April 27th the A team recorded the greatest ever comeback when collecting all three points from NCW. Trailing 3-0 with minutes remaining it looked curtains for Ballingarry. Two goals in as many minutes from Denis Kelly, his second equaling the clubs record goals scored at 127 for the club, gave Ballingarry hope. Francis Kiely made it 3-3 and with just ten minutes remaining sub James O’Kelly got Ballingarrys fourth to secure and unlikely and remarkable comeback.
