The 1st Yr A team had the perfect season - unbeaten in all games. They played Dundalk Grammar in the semi-final winning 4-1 to set up a showdown with Loreto Dalkey in the final. Following a tense 1st half with chances falling to both teams, the girls come out all guns blazing and were rewarded with a great team goal inside the first two minutes. They controlled the remainder of the half, cementing their win with a great strike from Gile Martin from the top of the circle. Sion Hill have never before won a 1st Yr Leinster title.
