Match Report: Celbridge Vs Ballykelly
Division 4 Kildare LGFA U14's League Game
18th May 2017
The Celbridge U14's Girls team finished on top tonight, after winning against Ballykelly in the Division 4 league and with a place in the Semifinals firmly booked/secured on the 1st of June 2017. It's now just a question of who they'll be playing, as it all depends on the other results in the league, with league games being played over the next week by other teams in the Division.
The mentors (Brendan & Paul) are delighted with all the U14's girls on the team, throughout this whole football term. They're now just looking forward to the next challenge in the coming two weeks.
There was too many stars tonight to mention everyone, as all the players were fantastic, both on and off the pitch!

Latest Match Report:
Cappagh U14's LGFA vs Celbridge U14's LGFA - 11th of May 2017 @7.15pm (Cappagh GAA)
The Celbridge Girls were eager to continue their good league form unbeaten, on top of Division 4, in the LGFA Kildare league. Cappagh had already shown in the past, just how good they can be and having played well against Celbridge previously in the Feile group stages, they were hoping to make amends tonight at home.
However! on this occasion Celbridge were a much stronger side and the managers (Brendan & Paul) used all the travelling subs on the night, allowing the 24x girls, to try out all new match positions on the field, which worked out to be very positive. Full credit to the Cappagh U14's LGFA team and managers, they never gave up trying, until the last whistle and will be a great side for the future.
This win tonight guarantees Celbridge a league Semi-Final place on the 1st of June and keeps them top of the table ahead of their next tough opposition "Ballykelly" on the 18th of May in Celbridge GAA, who are also unbeaten in the league.
Final Score: Cappagh U14's LGFA 1-4 to Celbridge U14's LGFA 9-12

Match Report: Lexilip Confey U14's Girls vs Celbridge U14's Girls – 27th April 2017 - @7.15pm (Confey GAA)
Written by Brendan Pimlott
It's been an excellent start for the U14's Celbridge football girls so far this year! Of course, after winning Division 6 Kildare LGFA League last year as U13's and being promoted up 2x divisions, also winning mini tournament as U12's and without any competitive match defeats in over 3 years, it easy to see just how well and just how good these girls have become over the last 3 years. This has also shown in the player numbers for the Club, as the squad has grown each year and currently stands at 31 girls in U14's. It's clear to see that the tough weekly training has paid off for the girls and Celbridge GAA club. Managing Mentors: Brendan Pimlott and Paul Lynch are very proud of all of the girls.
After 2x successful league game wins for the Celbridge girls, they wanted to keep the process going and stay on top of Division 4. Also in the back of the Celbridge girl's minds was the Kildare LGFA Feile Group match tournament, scheduled for this Sunday (30th April 2017). Celbridge have been paired into a very tough Feile group this year, first against fellow Division 4 team Cappagh LGFA and then against the Group Feile hosts and last year's Division 4 winners and currently in Division 3, Rathcoffey who are very strong.
Lexilip Confey after their first defeat against Blessington, they were looking to get some points on the league table, but! The odds were fully stacked against them. As Celbridge team arrived with 26 girls, all ready and able to play. The mentors Brendan & Paul could afford to use this game to try different players in new positions, along with preparation for the Feile group matches on Sunday.
It took 7x mins before the first point was scored by Celbridge against Confey, which was a bit worrying for team, as in Feile each half will only be 15 mins long. The management team swapped in and out all of the Celbridge girls over the two half's tonight and this proved to be very good for all of the girls concerned, as they all played fantastically and scoring goals& points throughout the match. The mentors were delighted by all of the girls tonight, with the final score ending: Lexilip Confey 2-4 and Celbridge 9-9. It was great that all 26x girls played and contributed in the game, there was one bad tackle by Confey in the second half, which forced the Celbridge midfielder Megan Quinn off injured, and thankfully she was ok afterwards.
Final Score – Division 4 – Kildare LGFA U14's: Confey 2-4, Celbridge 9-9
