Leinster LGFA Junior Football Championship Kilcock 0-15 Baile Dubh Tíre (Wexford) 1-9 Kilcock won the Leinster Junior Championship today after a powerful second half display.

The sides were level at half time at 0-4 apiece but Kilcock put three points between the teams early in the second but a goal brought the Wexford side right back into the game.

But it was to be Kilcock’s day and with player of the match Sarah Lavin, Grace White, Aisling O’Connor and Emma Robinson all in excellent scoring form, the Kildare champions were able to pull away and add a Leinster title to an already superb year.
