August Team of the Month: Limekiln Rounders Senior Women
LIMEKILN Rounders Senior Women’s team have been named as Active South Dublin’s Team of the month after an excellent performance saw them win the All Ireland final.
The side won their first Senior Women’s All Ireland title in 21 years with a victory over Breaffy in the final.
Limekiln were underdogs coming into the game with Breaffy having won the last four finals consecutively.
It would be an extremely close final and momentum would change throughout the game on several occasions.
Ultimately it would be just one run separating the teams with Limekiln doing enough to get the result over the line and secure the title.
Emma Johnson would be named Player of the Match as Limekiln emerged as deserved winners from the contest and break the stranglehold that Breaffy had held over the competition over the previous four years.
