Bray Emmets 05- 11

Eire Og           03-08

Bray Emmets consolidated their second placed league position with a deserved home win against seaside neighbours, Eire Og of Greystones. On a day borrowed from summer, Bray started the brightest with an

early procession of scores through Aoife Heffernan and Khalie Medlar. For the first 20 minutes, Bray were in full control and looked to be setting up a substantial lead. However, to their credit Eire Og never

conceded defeat. With some impressive running, they gradually began to ease their way back into the game  to reduce the Bray lead to seven points at the interval.

The second half started brightly again for Bray as they notched up further scores to extend their lead. Once again however, Eire Og experienced a period of dominance and as the game entered the final

stages, the Bray lead was again reduced to seven points. As tiredness set in on both sides, the game became somewhat scrappy.  In the final minutes scores for Bray from Vicki Lennon and Niamh Coleman secured

the Bray win. Best for Bray on a very hot day was Sinead Boland (02-02) whose tireless running was always a threat to the visitors defence. Sheena Smith and Siobhan Egan held the defensive lines well

for Bray, while Michaela Shelley worked hard to link defence and attack. With just three matches remaining Bray are looking odds-on to reach the semi-final play offs at least.

Arklow 2-8,     Bray     1-9

The Senior Ladies travelled to Aughrim on Sunday Afternoon for their Championship Semi-Final match against Arklow. The Ladies took about 5 minuets to settle, and in that time Arklow notched up a few points. We then took over and Bray played the most amazing football, with Niamh Coleman putting us on the score board, followed by Mikeala Shelly, and Aoife Heffernan. It was end to end football and the teams went in all square at half time.  Bray started off the better team in the second half and had Arklow on the run. Six minuets before the end Sheena Smith was yellow carded and down to 14 Ladies, Arklow struck goal leaving 4 points in it.  Bray clawed back 2points from Khalie Medler and Aisling Ni Annaidh leaving a 2 point margin. Unfortunately time ran out for us and Arklow won by 2 points.

It was a great game with the Ladies playing fantastic football.

WELL DONE BRAY. Congratulations to Arklow.
