Junior Ladies:

Sunday morning saw a first game of the year for a young Ballycomoyle ladies team in a challenge game vs Connolly's of Longford. Bal ladies started well in the sunshine and had a good lead at the halfway mark. This was a great half of football as it was the team’s first run out on grass since last summer. The team held on for the draw in second half - having scored 3-13. There were lots of positives on the day and some impressive displays. The management would like to thank those who helped on the day and also the pitch maintenance team for having the pitch in such good condition.
