This secured Saint Aidan’s a well-earned win! Without having a break, the A team then went on to play Millfield. The game started positively, which helped to gain a comfortable lead by half time. They managed to keep the lead going and by the end had won both games! With all the hard work put in, Saint Aidan’s were crowned winners of the tournament!Alice O’Brien said: “I think that both our teams played well and finished many of our chances. “Our defence was strong and we made the game very difficult for the other teams.”
