Well done to the U18 London team and the Parnells girls- Sine Moffatt, Aisling Fallon, Elizabeth Peach and Millie Taylor (Emily O’Driscoll previously) who played their last game in the University League against St Mary’s. They have battled against some harsh conditions in the last two weeks but their enjoyment with the game has shone through and delight in representing their county.
