Ballymacelligott Handball Club News 14th April 2002


The All Ireland semi-finals were held in Tralee and Ballymacelligott last Sunday. Our Club hosted the U17 singles and Doubles in Boys and girls. A warm thanks to everyone who helped out on the day and especially to our secretary Breda Riordan who organised everything on the day and in the weeks coming up to the games. The court and surrounding areas were immaculate and a credit to everyone involved. Thanks a million to all the FAS team who did so much work for us during the week. We really appreciate it all.

The results of our games that were played are as follows:
U14 Girls Singles: Ashley Prendiville (Ballymac) defeated Ruth Kelly (Galway) 15/0, 15/6.
U14 Girls Doubles: Catriona Casey (Ballymac) & Karen Lawlor (Tralee) defeated Emma Flatley & Jennifer Fahy (Galway) 15/4, 15/6.
