After a bad month of March wweather-wise the under 13 Girls finally got their season underway.  We travelled to Monasterboice to face Albion Rovers.

Johnstown quickly got into their stride, attacking the home team from the first whistle.  It took some heroic saves from the Albion ‘keeper to keep the sides level in the opening 15 minutes.  Eventually, the dead lock was broke when Hannah O Brien got through their defence and finished calmly. It was no less than Johnstown deserved for all the hard work they were putting in. Aoibha Grumley added a second not long after with a great strike from just outside the area.  2-0 Johnstown at half time.

The second half started much the same as Johnstown went on attack after attack. Hannah got her second of the afternoon before Albion pulled one back.  The game was real high tempo at this stage with Albion trying to get back into it when Hannah got her third. This was added to soon after by a super finish by Jessie Devoy-Horan to make it 5-1.  A great strike from Aoibha found its way through the unfortunate ‘keepers legs to round of a great day for Johnstown.  A great team performance, where each of the girls really played their socks off.

Final score 6-1 to Johnstown.
