Wexford Ladies Football County Senior Final Preview
This Saturday afternoon at 5.30pm in Taghmon the ladies football senior county final takes place with Shelmeliars chasing a three in a row against old rivals Clonee. The prize for the winners is the beautiful Noel Quill memorial cup and once again this promises to be another fantastic final. This is the eight year in a row the final is between the two premier sides of ladies football and a win for the Shelmeliars would even the count on four titles each. Both sides have beaten Adamstown, St Fintan’s, Clongeen, Kilmore and Kilanerin, while the league clash between the sides saw Shelmeliars take the win on a 5-10 to 2-11 score line. In recent years finals between these sides have been high scoring and another great game is in prospect. In the semi finals Clonee beat Kilmore 3-11 to 0-10, while Shelmeliars defeated Kilanerin 2-16 to 0-4.
With both sides featuring many of the Wexford junior team players like Leona Tector, Clara Donnelly, Kellie Kearny, Maeve Quill, Tara Maloney and Michelle Doyle for Shelmeliars and Marguerite Doyle, Stephanie Hallahan, Mary O’Neill, Liz and Ali Everedd for Clonee the standard of players on show will be of the highest quality. It is very difficult to tip a winner for this game but with Shelmeliars chasing three titles on the bounce they are given the slight edge over their rivals.
