On Thursday the 14th of November our junior girls hockey team went head to head against Sion Hill, which was their second league match of the season.
Sion Hill had a strong start by getting an early short corner which hit of a DCC defenders foot. However they were unable to hit the net.
Ella Higgins put on a great performance by dominating the game with making some great runs up the line as well as clearing the Sion Hill defenders. Donabate had a few great chances by winning some short corners but Sion hill put up a good fight.
Goalkeeper Lily Majewski kept a clean sheet despite pressure from Sion Hill.
In the second half we had some DCC supporters to cheer on the girls. Despite plenty of chances, neither side could break the deadlock. After a very competitive performance, the final whistle blew to end it 0-0.
Well done to the girls and we wish them the best of luck in their next match. Thanks to Mr Graham and Ms Hannigan for their work with the team!
