Ladies Academy: Full fource

While Cliftonville Ladies celebrate their first ever Danske Bank Women’s Premiership title success, we’re continuing to monitor the up-and-coming stars who hope to one day follow in their historic footsteps.

No fewer than three Reds players scored four times this week, with our Under-9s (pictured) celebrating the contribution of Hollie Delaney, while Olivia McLoughlin and Hannah McEntee hot quadruples for the Under-10s and Under-17s, respectively, during another busy run of ganes at various levels of the Cliftonville Girls Academy.
