Senior League – Round 1 

Holloway Gaels – 8-15
Thomas McCurtains 1-02


​On Saturday afternoon in Goodmayes Holloway Gaels and Thomas McCurtains opened the 2017 Ladies Senior League.


Thomas McCurtains settled into the game straight away with a goal in the opening five minutes. Holloway tried to clear their lines but McCurtains added another point from play and another fantastically taken free by their full forward, leaving it 1-.02 to no score.

After eventually settling into the game, Holloway broke up the pitch and levelled the game in a matter of minutes, points from midfielder Caroline McKay, Gaels newbie Emma McShane and Mary Ellen Cannon rattled the back of the onion bag for her first of the day. 

From here on in it was a one-sided affair although McCurtains battled on but with a strong defence in place Holloway were able to move at pace and pull the game away from the East London side. Holloway captain Caroline Hanley was instrumental in building the attack from defence to attack allowing Cannon to add to her tally for the half with a hat-trick of goals, McShane adding another two and Enya O’Donnell adding two points and a goal, which O’Donnell claimed but may have had some assistance from a McCurtains player.

Half time read Thomas McCurtains 1-.02 Holloway Gaels 5-.06.

Again, McCurtains started the second half brightly but the Gaels defence were able to snuff out any form of attack. Emma Mulhern and Ruanne Hunt showing great strength. O’Donnell and Hanley both with a point from play. Clare Cullen added to the goal count. And further points from Holloway legend Aileen Brady-Bryne, McShane, Cannon and Ann Marie Fitzgerald meant the Gaels were out of sight.

McCurtains continued to apply pressure but the gaels defence were not giving in so easily, Holloway keeper Sheila Walshe was fantastic all afternoon and through constant support from her full back line Caitriona Donnellan, Hunt and Sylvia O’Sullivan was always able to find a black and red shirt.  

Charlotte Faughnan and Holloway trouper Aisling Clifford came on to add to the score board with a goal each. Final points from Fitzgerald and Cullen finished off the game for Holloway.
​
An impressive win by the Holloway Gaels but its still early days.

The 2017 Ann Dunning Tournament

19/4/2017

A wonderful day was had in Greenford on the 11th March 2017.

A huge thank you to the KKG, Fr. Murphy's. St. Marys and Tara's teams who always come along to help remember Ann. HG also showed great respect for the work Ann had done for our club and arrived in their numbers to enter two teams on the day. 

After all teams competing in tough, enjoyable and fiercely competitive games, the final was eventually contested by St. Marys of Reading and the believed-to-be-weaker, Holloway Gaels team After a tight first half, St. Marys began to push on and show their fitness with a flurry of goals which Holloway had no answer for. In the end St Mary's ran home comfortable and deserving winners. 

  • For the first time ever the tournament invited underage teams to also take part which is something we believe 'Stunning Dunning' would of been immensely proud of. Hopefully this shows the progress ladies football is having in London and a huge thank you to those who continue to advertise and work with the gaelic4girls programs.
