Wicklow U16’s <strong>Leinster</strong> Youths Cup champions 2019<br />
Wicklow Left to Right Ella Roberts, Brian Clarke, Jess Roberts<br />
It has been a sobering experience in<br />
this, Wicklow’s first proper season in the<br />
AIL. They have been humbled by the<br />
powerhouses of the AIL, losing out to Old<br />
Belvedere (63-0), Railway Union (142-0)<br />
and Blackrock College (63-0) in the<br />
opening three rounds of the All-Ireland<br />
League.<br />
This brought with it a hail of criticism<br />
about mismatches and the merits of the<br />
All-Ireland League as the step below<br />
Interprovincial level, the Railway Union<br />
whitewash even drawing national<br />
headlines.<br />
“In some ways, it doesn’t serve any<br />
purpose to go over the Railway Union<br />
match or, indeed, those three matches.<br />
We had to get on with it and get past it,”<br />
he says.<br />
“We were invited into the competition.<br />
The other side of that is we accepted the<br />
challenge. To be beaten like we were<br />
against Railway would have damaged a<br />
lesser group of women.<br />
