Dunboyne women claim All-Ireland crown

The women from Dunboyne completed a fantastic year with a memorable and historic victory today in the All-Ireland Ladies JFC final at Limerick.

Dunboyne negotiated the challenge of top Minster side Bantry Blues and won by seven points in what was an exciting encounter.

Dunboyne won by 1-10 to 1-3 and were ahead by 1-3 to 0-1 at half-time with Vikki Wall scoring the all-important goal for the Meath and Leinster champions.

Scorers: Vikki Wall 1-6, Ann-Marie Moffat 0-1, Shelly Amelia 0-1, Aoife Thompson, 0-1, Fiona O'Neill 0-1.

It has been a good year for the Dunboyne Ladies who were nominated last month as the 2015 Meath Ladies Club of the Year after a tremendous season.

The adult team achieved a win over St Ultan's in the Div 1 FL final back in May and that signalled their intent for the Championship.

The Meath JFC title followed in September with a win over Clann na nGael in Paddy O’Brien Park, Navan.

Aoife Thompson sealed a wonderful performance with the Player of the Match accolade and since then Dunboyne have not looked back, winning a Leinster Junior Club Championship title in October and they have now completed the journey today with the All-Ireland Junior final victory.
