Carrick Town experienced both joy and despair in Connacht Finals over the space of three days last weekend as their U14 Girls claimed a Shield title but there was defeat for the U16 side.
Appearing in the U16 Cup Final in Headford last Friday evening, nerves appeared to get the better of the Town u16 team as Knocknacarra raced into a 3-0 lead by halftime. Town regrouped in the second half with Lucie Maye earning the distinction of becoming the first Carrick Town player to score in a Connacht Final as the Galway side won 4-1.
