The Camogie Junior Ladies side won the 2022 Connacht Ventilation Supplies Junior B 12 Aside League Final.  

In tough warm weather conditions, they came out on top in what was a close fought tight match against a strong Oranmore Maree Camogie Club winning by four points on a score of 3.11 to 3.7. The last time Béal Átha na Slua won the competition was 24 years ago in 1998!  So it was great to see that almost quarter of century gap bridged.  

Club Chairperson Niamh Prendergast  said “Days like these don’t come out of nowhere. Plenty of hard work goes on behind the scenes. Well done to the panel , along with the management team of Alan Murphy and Michelle Kelly for this Victory.”
