Mayfield Fé14 Girls versus Aghada @ Mayfield 20/2/2010:
On Saturday afternoon the 20th of February, Mayfield Fé14 Girls played Aghada at home in their first challenge game of the season. Mayfield got off to an excellent start with a goal from Shauna Kiely (Captain) in the first few minutes of the first half. Aghada however, responded with a number of fine points. The home side fought back with some great points from Cliona Cronin and Aimee Teegan. Lauren Barry then went on to score from a well taken penalty. Half time saw Aghada ahead by one point.
Mayfields fighting spirit brought about a great start to the second half despite unfavourable conditions. A Strong Aghada team tested Mayfields defence, however the girls worked extra hard to keep them at bay. Mayfield went on to score two more fine goals and began the season with their first win. Shauna Cronin and Lauren McCarthy should also be mentioned for their efforts throughout the game.
Final score Mayfield 4 -5 Aghada 2 - 4

U14 Football Mid-Cork Championship - Mayfield versus Passage Saturday 12th September 2009:
On Saturday last 12th September, the U14 football team travelled to Passage for the mid Cork Football Championship. This was our first underage championship match so the girls were excited and a little nervous. Mayfield got a great start with Laura Lotty taking control of midfield and within a few minutes we got our opening point. As the game went on Mayfield became more confident and the scores started to come from Chloe Lynch, Aimee Teegan and a well worked goal by Lauren Barry settled them down. Mayfield's defence was brilliant as a whole and crowded Passage out when they attacked. During the second half Mayfield continued to play and score well with points from Sarah, Chloe, Cliona and Jennifer. Passage did get a goal, which they deserved as it was a great game played in good spirit and fantastic conditions. We are now looking forward to next game against Macroom. Well done girls.

24/06/2009 The Gaelic4Girls National Blitz Day took place at St Brigid's GAA ground, Kiltoom, Athlone on Saturday.
The blitz is the culmination of a national programme aimed at young girls aged 9 - 13 years from disadvantaged areas which are predominately non GAA strongholds.
This programme created by Ladies Gaelic Football has been supported by the Irish Sports Council Women in Sport Initiative for the past 3 years and has proven a huge success in increasing young girls' participation in sport.
This year the programme took place in eight venues around the Country, Cork City (Ballyphephane and Mayfield), Dublin (Balbriggan and Gloucester Street), Cavan Town, Derry City, Belfast, Limerick City, Mayo (Ballyhaunis) and Westmeath (Tang).
Ladies Gaelic Football President Pat Quill, said, "The Gaelic4Girls initiative has continued to be a resounding success. Sport is vital for disadvantaged communities and even more so for young girls who are often forgotten when it comes to inclusion in sport. This programme gives these young girls a positive outlet and a focal point to develop as both individuals and sportspeople."
Over 300 girls participated in the Gaelic4Girls National Blitz Day and over 90% of these young sports enthusiasts never played Ladies Football or any sport before taking part in this programme.
Stars of the ladies game such as Monaghan's Ciara McAnespie, Dublin's Denise Masterson and Mayo's Claire O'Hara assisted with the running of drills and sharing their knowledge of the game with the young participants.
The girls played in mini-games where they showcased their newly learned skills wearing their unique area colour t-shirt and the day concluded with all participants receiving a specially engraved medal from our President Pat Quill.

13/05/2009 Our Adult Ladies Team had their first outing in the Junior League last week. The Mallow team proved a little too strong on the day.

- Fé14 Girls Football League: Mayfield versus Passage @ Mayfield Wednesday 22nd April 2009. Our U14 game against passage was a tough game but credit to the girls who continue to improve week by week. Our back line did very well and we got some nice scores. Our goalie on the day was Lynsey Martin who was outstanding.
Our U12 team played their first challenge match against Ballyphehane last Sunday, they were defeated but spirits are high as they prepare for the first League Match which will be commencing next week. They will meet with Naomh Fionnbarra in the first game of the league.
Our Junior Ladies team have commenced training and are very appreciative to their Coach Eoin O'Mahony and his assistant Liam Crowley - both are taking time out from their other commitments within the GAA Club. Training takes place every Monday and Thursday evening from 7-8.30 pm and new members are always welcome. They are looking forward to their first challenge match which hopefully will be played next Monday 4th May 2009.
