U-10 Girls Footballers Out Of This World


The U-10 Girls Footballers had a great day out at their pre-Christmas trip to Armagh Planetarium at the start of December. The girls enjoyed the bus trip down and were entertained at a special Christmas show entitled 'The Mystery Of The Christmas Star', at a special dinosaur talk and making their own colourful rockets. A great day out for all, looked after by coaches Colm Murray and Cera McArdle.


Na Fianna visit Bredagh

The hall was packed with Na Fianna bringing a great group with 37 girls and over 10 mentors as well as the Bredagh girls and coaches.

Activities kicked off with a Team Challenge involving the Bredagh and Na Fianna girls with fun activities and competitions for all involving balloons and wheelbarrows. This was followed by a Christmas sing-song led by Martin from Na Fianna with everyone in good voice and in good form.

Na Fianna Presented Bredagh with a plaque and some presents to commemorate their visit and the Na Fianna girls enjoyed some refreshments and selection boxes laid on by the Bredagh club.

The Na Fianna girls then headed off the W5 for the rest of their day. A return visit is planned for early next year!
Read all about the visit in the Na Fianna web-site www.clgnafianna.ie
Thanks a million to Na Fianna for coming to visit us and for all their hard work in making the trip a great success, especially to the mentors including Brian, Cormac and Martin (and others).

Thanks also to the Bredagh coaches - John McGale, Colm Murray and Cera McArdle and to Elaine Blaney and Louise Waterfield who looked after the adults in the Na Fianna group so well.



U 10 Player of The Week
The U--10 Player of The Week for last week was Anna Foster.


Anna has recently returned after breaking her arm (not while playing football!).
She has returned in great form and with her typical great attitude.
Welcome back Anna.


Girls' Football Mystery Tour
All was revealed on Saturday 22nd August when the Bredagh U-8, U-10 and U-12 girls footballers headed off on their Mystery Tour. The girls enjoyed a beautiful September day and headed off from Cherryvale on the bus.

First stop was the Moneyglass club in Antrim for some friendly matches for the U-8, U-10 and U-12 matches. The girls really enjoyed the matches. They played with great skill and teamwork and fought hard for every ball. Moneyglass were very welcoming and generously provided drinks, sandwiches and treats for the Bredagh visitors. Thanks to Moneyglass for their great hospitality.

The girls then headed off to Carnfunnock Country Park on the Antrim coast where they spent the rest of the day. Activities started with a visit to the Maze where by good luck the same number left the maze as had entered it. Highlight of the day was the X-Factor competition at the Giant Bird tables where the girls took it in turns to display their singing and dancing talents. The girls then tucked into their barbeque before heading to the activity centre to try out the Adventure Playground and Outdoor Chess. It was time to head home, watching Scooby Doo on the bus for the second showing of the day, back to Cherryvale and the waiting parents. A great day out was had by all. Thanks to the coaches and helpers - Laura Willighan, John McGale, Colm Murray, Cera McArdle, Duana McArdle.

U10 Girls - Football, Tightrope Walking, Horses and Cookies








The Bredagh U10 Girls Football had a ball on their Away Day on Saturday. The day kicked off at 9 o'clock where the girls gathered to get the bus to Lurgan. First on the agenda was a friendly match against the Clann Eireann girls. Two small-sided matches were played at the same time which meant all the Bredagh girls played all the time. The Bredagh girls put up great performances in both matches against the Clann Eireann girls. In Match1 the Bredagh girls put up a good performance against a very good Clann Eireann team. Clann Eireann had strong runners and Bredagh struggled to get to grips with their opponents. Amy Magee did very well in goals but at times the Bredagh players did not show for the kick-outs, making it difficult to get the ball down the Clann Eireann half. The Bredagh defence was under a lot of pressure but all the defenders worked really hard. Nuala McManus was very effective at the heart of defence, gathering and clearing a lot of ball that came her direction and Sinead Murray and Orlagh Blaney stuck to their task well. Ciara Blaney and Bronagh Murray worked tirelessly in midfield, and covered a lot of ground in defending and attacking as required. As the half went on Bredagh came into the match more. A good Bredagh attacking move saw the ball passed to Helen McGale who set up a chance of a point for Ciara Blaney. Ciara was unlucky to put it narrowly wide. In the lead-up to half-time Bredagh worked the ball forward several times with the unselfish Helen McGale showing for the ball and passing it to set up a few chances that went just wide. The Bredagh girls made a good improvement in the second half. Zoe Waterfield and Amy Magee moved to defence where they tackled and shadowed really well. Cliona Regan in the forwards also stepped up her work-rate. Helen McGale moved to goals and was very steady, finding her team-mates in space for the kick-outs. Bronagh Murray showed well for the kickouts and was able to start a very good attack which involved a number of Bredagh players. The ball was played back to Bronagh who burst through on goal and rifled the ball to the back of the net. Clann Eireann responded well with a couple of excellent scores. That was not the end of the Bredagh scoring and the Bredagh girls continued to push forward, being encouraged by getting their first goal. Orlagh Blaney was very courageous in winning a ball in attack and that possession enabled Bredagh to push forward and Bronagh Murray to score another cracking goal. In Match2 Clann Eireann put pressure on from the start but the Bredagh defence of Clodagh Smith , Anna Foster and Kathryn Browne stood steadfast with Hannah McKegney doing well in goals. Kathryn Browne and Rachel McVeigh battled hard in the half-back line to push forward ably assisted by Eimear Smith in midfield. Clann eireann pressed again with some excellent points before adding goals. Aoife McLaughlin, Emma Scullion and Rebecca McKegney worked hard to bring Bredagh into the match. The Second half saw Bredagh coming into the game to greater effect with Aoife and Emma pressurising from the front. Aine Wills coped tenaciously in goals whilst Hannah McKegney added great determination to the half-back line. Bredagh began to gain more possession through excellent defending with Anna Foster again coming to the fore and this lead to Bredagh's best move with Rachel McVeigh hitting a thunderous shot of the crossbar. Again the Bredagh battled to the end but Clann Eireann ran out deserved winners. Thanks to Clann Eireann for hosting the visit and for the drinks, which came in handy for the picnic later in the day. Then it was back to the bus and off to Tanaghmore Gardens for the afternoon. The hungry girls polished off their packed lunches and then set about an assortment of obstacles, tightropes, and climbing frames. A climbing competition soon developed on the Monkey Bars and it's likely that a few of the Bredagh girls will have longer arms on Monday than they did on Friday! This was followed by a visit to the Animal Farm where the girls saw horses, donkeys, pigs and chickens. Then it was back to the bus for the journey home which didn't have a quiet moment on the way home. Even the bus driver joined in the singing as the girls sang the whole way back to Cherryvale. Thanks to the coaches and to Isobel McManus for looking after the girls on the trip, and thanks to the girls for behaving so well throughout the day - they were a credit to the club. One final note - Izzy stole the cookie from the cookie jar....

U10 Girls first match!
The Bredagh U10 Girls Football Team played their first match on Tuesday night in Boucher Road against St.Pauls.
St.Pauls started strongly and scored a couple of early points despite good pressure from the full-back line of Clodagh Smith, Anna Foster and Aine Wills.

Some good play from the midfield of Eimear Smith and Aoidin McPeake enabled Bredagh to push forward and bring the half-forward line of Rebecca McKegney, Rachel McVeigh and Hannah McKegney into the match. Hannah McKegney kept on the move and used her four steps to well to play the ball out.

St.Pauls responded with a couple of goals when the Bredagh defence did not mark their players tightly enough and there was nothing that goalkeeper Kathryn Browne could do about the goals.

The half-back line of Bronagh Murray, Joanne McKay and Zoe Waterfield continued to battle and prevented St.Pauls from pushing forward.
Nuala McManus, Ciara Blaney and Helen McGale chased every ball that came their way in the full-forward line.

The second half showed a good improvement from the Bredagh girls.
Chloe Henderson, Orlagh Blaney and Sinead Murray came on and battled really well in defence and some of the older girls came more into the match with Ciara Blaney and Rebecca McKegney making some great challenges and
Clodagh Smith, Eimear Smith and Aoidin McPeake clearing the ball well.
Rachel McVeigh covered a lot of ground and game into the game more.
Kathryn Browne, who had played very well in goals in the first half, made a great contribution when she came outfield inthe second half.
The younger members of the team competed really well with Amy Magee, Alannah Conlon, Aoife Hemderson and Aoibhin Brentall battling well.
Anna Foster went into goals and picked up her good form in the first half. Anna and Joanne continued to catch and kick to great effect. Aine Wills continued to tackle and block in her usual tenacious way.

All in all a very good first day out for the Bredagh U10s against a much more experienced St.Pauls team.
The girls will learn lots from this match and can practice in training on things that did not go so well during the match.

Next up - Training Match at Cherryvale on Thursday at 5:30.

Team:
Kathryn Browne, Clodagh Smith, Anna Foster, Zoe Waterfield, Bronagh Murray, Joanne McKay, Aine Wills, Eimear Smith, Aoidin McPeake, Rebekah McKegney, Rachel McVeigh, Hannah McKegney, Nuala McManus, Ciara Blaney, Helen McGale, Chloe Henderson, Orlagh Blaney, Amy Magee, Alannah Conlon, Sinead Murray, Aoibhin Brentall

There was a large overall squad, which required plenty of help!
2005 Coaches: John McGale, Patricia McGurk, Nell O'Neill, Grainne McAllister, assisted by Katie Campbell, Amy Cunningham, Louise Fitzpatrick, Suzy Irvine, Lisa Kelly, Emma Mulhern, Jamie Willighan and Laura Willlighan.
