Tourlestrane clinch Sligo LGFA Division 1 title

Tourlestrane clinched the Sligo LGFA Connacht Gold Division 1 senior league title on Sunday at Curry with an extra-time victory over Eastern Harps, on a final scoreline of 2-18 to 2-15.

The final had been delayed for some time because of club championship scheduling issues but both teams served up entertaining far at the south Sligo venue.

The sides finished level at 2-13 at the end of normal time before Tourlestrane pulled clear in the extra-period to eventually win an entertaining league final by three points.

It was hard luck on Eastern Harps who have now lost both intermediate championship and Division 1 league finals in 2022.

Katie Walsh scored 2-9 for the winners while Tara Phillips contributed 1-12 of Harps tally.

Tourlestrane had won their recent club championship clash by a decisive margin but Sunday's final was much closer with plenty of fine football from both teams.
