The girls of 5th and 6th of Bekan NS took part in the mini sevens on the 9th of November in the Centre of Excellence. The team consisted of Rianna [goalie], Katie, Sarah, Alannah, Bree, Sinead, Treasa, [subs] Carlagh, Sophia, Kéleigh, Andrea, Jessalyn and Grainne. The girls were very excited.
Firist the girls played Balla who left Bekan with victory. Second the girls played Ballyhaunis and won. This left the girls with smiles on their faces. Next there was Tooreen, and if we won we would be through to a final.
It was a close fight but Bekan girls scraped through to the final. We then had to play Gaelscoil de Burca. Sadly, the Bekan girls lost their title by two points. Overall, we had a brilliant day and we wish the Gaelscoil girls the best of luck as they progress to the next stage.
