Well done Ellen.
Our U-16s finished off their Ulster round robin campaign with a victory over a young Antrim side today in Portaferry.
Played in cool conditions on the bottom pitch, there was some excellent scoring on display in the first half which Down went in at the break leading 2-6 to 0-7 ahead.
In a keenly contested second half Down were able to keep the score board ticking over and despite a late Antrim goal, came out on top 2-16 to 1-11.
This was a game that was played hard and fair throughout and both teams deserve great credit for the entertainment they served up over the hour.
Thanks to Portaferry GAC for the use of their facilities and for the hospitality shown to all who attended. A big thank you to the ref John O'Connor who let the game flow to the benefit of both teams.
Down will now play Armagh in the final.
