Slaney Cup Inter League Under Fourteen
Wexford Under Fourteen girls finished runners up behind Kilkenny, losing out on goal difference to Kilkenny in a very competitive inaugural Slaney Cup in All Blacks on Saturday. This competition was set up by the Wexford League to assist their squad in preparation for the upcoming Gaynor Cup and Wexford manager Philip McGrath will be content with the performance of his young squad.  Wexford won two of their games and drew with Kilkenny in the final game but lost out as Kilkenny had a superior goal difference and took home the cup. In the opening game, Wexford overcame Waterford 3-0 thanks to goals from Ciara Rees, Jennah Molloy and Holly Jenkinson. This was followed by a tight 1-0 win over Wexford Development squad with Cira Bates Crosbie scoring the only goal of the game before a 1-1 draw with Kilkenny rounded off the day with Kilkenny running out winners on goal difference. Cira Bates Crosbie was also the Wexford scorer in this game. This tournament was also a great run out for Wexford Development squad who were called in at the last minute when South Tipperary had to withdraw and put in some excellent performances in their three games

Slaney Cup Inter League Under Sixteen
Three wins from three games saw Wexford lift the inaugural Slaney Under Sixteen Cup in All Blacks on Sunday afternoon with manager Mick Bennett delighted with the performance of his young squad. Goals from Sara Siggins, Shannon McGovern and Emma Clarke gave Wexford an opening win against Kilkenny and followed this up with a hard earned 2-1 win over Carlow courtesy of a Kira Bates Crosbie header and a Niamh McHugh strike. The final group game saw Kira Bates Crosbie score again as Wexford overcame Waterford 1-0 and wrap up the tournament. Kira rounded off a great day by also being awarded player of the tournament and the league would like to take this opportunity to thank All Blacks for the use of the complex for the weekend and all who came and supported both teams

Women’s Division One Runners Up Play Off
Bree United     4          Kilmore United           7
An outstanding display by Katrina Parrock saw her score six goals as Kilmore earned runners up spot in division one and promotion to the premier division with a 7-4 win over Bree United in Fastnet Rovers. Amy Long scored two for Bree while Mary O Gorman and Ciara Rossiter also found the net while Chloe Troy scored the other Kilmore goal

Referees Seminar
There are no games on Saturday as our referees are participating in their compulsory seminar so there is no point in clubs arranging games for Saturday May 20th as there will be no referees available. I would also like to take this opportunity to thank our match officials for their help and co-operation throughout a long season and wish them the best of luck in their seminar on Saturday
