Report :
This was a hard fought victory for Ballivor. They started the game very well and picked a number of good scores from play. St. Cuthberts were restricted to a couple of chances as the defence coped well with the opposing attack. In the second half, St. Cuthberts pushed forward and gained some momentum with a penalty but Ballivor held strong and maintained their lead – though at one stage it was a solitary point. Eventually, they were awarded a penalty which was scored and this proved to be the last play of the game. A great victory by the team and we look forward to a similar performance in the final.
