I caught up with the Women’s AIL match between Cooke and Ballincollig late on Saturday afternoon at Shaw’s Bridge.
It was a bit of a scrappy match initially but Ballincollig enjoyed a golden spell midway through the first half when Michelle O’Driscoll burst through the Cooke defence to open the scoring 13 minutes in. Allison Kelly added the conversion to give the visitors a 0 – 7 lead.

Seven minutes later O’Driscoll went over out wide for her second and five minutes after that out half Kelly Griffin spotted space on the left to round the defence and finish under the posts, for Kelly to convert, to take the score to 19 – 0.
