Girls Academy: Under-14s in a rush

Before another big weekend of action kicks off across the various levels and age groups at Cliftonville, it’s time to check in with the latest update from our Girls Academy.

One of the standout team displays of last week saw our Under-14s (pictured) turn on the style against Portrush at Ballysillan Leisure Centre, earning all three midfield slots in our Star XI – where competition was typically fierce as players throughout our set-up caught the eye with a string of impressive performances.
