All-Ireland Junior Championship 1/4 Final: DERRY 0-10 DOWN 0-9

Having played their best camogie of the season and still be on the losing side was hard to take for the Down Camogs and their managment team on Sunday in Slaughtneill. Down seeked revenge for the defeat at the hands of Derry in the Ulster Championship a few weeks ago. They did exactly as instructed and played hard and fast and were the better team.

Had it not have been for a few questionable refeering decision's in particular when Finnoula Carr on cleaning a ball connected with Orla Maginn and a free on the 21 was awarded to Derry. At the break Down lead by by point. On the restart Derry equalised and added 2 more before Down's free taking ace Catherine McGourty put Down ahead with 3 points.

Another questionable decision was the dismissal of Derry's Clare Doherty but Derry rose to this and got 2 more but Down did miss a few scorable frees before the end. Down's Finnoula Carr was outstanding aided by Karen McMullan Orla Maginn & Jenny Braniff.
