U14s
After the past few weeks at U14 county trials, the panel were selected and introduced to competitive juvenile inter-county competition. Although, only a challenge match teh entire panel were given the opportunity to play and represent their county. Some of these players were on Waterford's U14 All Ireland blitz winning team from last year and an influx of new girls.

The match was against a Cork selection and played in Ballynoe in County Cork at 10am. The start of summertime meant that some f the players especially those in the eastern part of the county had a very early start.

After a very tricky start the Waterford team imposed themselves on the Cork team and an impressive forward display from Kaesiha Tobin where she scored 3 goals in the first half. Waterford other scorers in the first half were Annie Fitzgerald (1-0), Aisling Baumann, Aisling Madigan and Kate Lynch all with 1 pt each. Waterford went in leading Cork by 4-03 to 2-02.

The start of the second half saw some positional and personnel changes to give an opportunity for all players to get game time. Cork came out the stronger and scored a total of 2-02 while Waterford were restricted to a solitary goal from Keely Corbett-Barry.

As this was a challenge match, both sets of mentors agreed to a further 25 minutes of play to get the best opportunity to see there respective players perform. In this additional time Waterford scored a total of 2-04 without reply. Waterford scorers were Aisling Madigan with a further 1-02, Annie Fitzgerald with a further 1-01 and a point from Eimear Foran although the Katie O'Keeffe in goal and backs such as Leah Barry and Shauna Fitzgerald were excellent in dealing with threats to the Waterford goal.
