Galway u16s hold off mayo to win provincial title

IT HAS been a difficult few weeks for all involved with under-age ladies football in Galway after the county’s U-14 side were denied a place in the All-Ireland final due to off the field reasons.
Back inside the white lines, their U-16 counterparts produced a strong finish to see off a gutsy second half fightback from Mayo and take the Connacht title last week.
The result of what was a highly entertaining match at Ballyhaunis GAA Grounds continued Galway’s dominance of under-age football in the province.
