Kiltullagh Pioneers AFC

Results from the weekends games.  Well done to all teams, a lot of a games completed.

U12 girls lost 2 - 1 to Knocknacarra this morning in Galway. A last minute penalty gave the Galway girls the points. All our girls played fantastic football and had enough chances to have won the game. It was a great game to watch and the girls should feel proud of their efforts.
