Limerick claim first ever Munster U16A Camogie Championship

Limerick restricted the Rebels to just one point after the turn of ends with Laura Flynn raising the Treaty’s second green flag on the resumption to ensure the result.

Limerick made history on Easter Monday as they claimed a first-ever Munster U16A Championship after comprehensively beating Cork 2-8 to 1-3 in Mallow.

The Shannonsiders had a slender two-point lead at the break but powered to victory with a strong second half display with captain Emma Mullins collecting the cup.

Aiming for a maiden title at the grade, Limerick had the perfect start with Caitlin Ryan’s goal on the quarter hour mark pushing them 1-3 to 0-1 ahead in Mallow.

Cork responded with a goal of their own to leave it evenly poised at 1-4 to 1-2 at the interval.

But Limerick restricted the Rebels to just one point after the turn of ends with Laura Flynn raising the Treaty’s second green flag on the resumption to ensure the result and history for Limerick.
