There was no camogie action this week for the seniors or minors but it was the time of the Junior players to take centre stage. The TyroneFéile was held at Derrytresk on Sunday on what turned out to be a glorious sunny day.The stage was set for a series of matches and a skills contest thatwas part of the Féile agenda. The camogie for the under 14 age group was of the highest order. The supporters turned out in full and at times the skilllevel far exceeded everyones expectations on the day.
The young players raised their game and it ended with Eglish and Dungannon making the final.The both teams were so closely matched that there had to be extra time at the end of a pulsating thirty minutes of end to end play.After extra time neither team could grasp the winning lead and when the whistle blew it was all square. This now means that there will be a replay on Thursday evening and everyone is anticipating another close and exciting game. Watch this space.
In the skills contest it was very close encounter and Féile organiser Emma McAliskey had the tough task of separating four excellent young players from Eglish , Edendork, Dungannon and Eire Og. It was Shauna Grogan from Eire Og that edged it and she was a proud player when she received her reward of a crested club Tyrone bag. The player of the final went to Ellie Donnelly and she was presented with a beautiful trophy that made the young camog very proud indeed. Everyone at Tyrone Camogie would like to thank all at Derrytresk for their hospitality on the day and a special thanks to Emma McAliskey, Catherine Hanna and Siobhan McGrath for the officiating and organising the event.
The refreshments made by the McAliskey household went down a treat.The Tyrone senior team will play another friendly on Sunday and will have home advantage against Keady. They hope to reverse last weeks narrow defeat by the Armagh team. There was some positive news that Frankie Bigley has moved from the injury table from a very long lay-off and is working hard towards full fitness for both her club and county. It is hoped she may make an appearance for the senior squad later in the year and her presence on the panel will have a positive impact .
