Reeling Them in

Armagh Senior Ladies Football

In the final minute of extra time at the 2024 Ulster Senior Ladies Final in Clones. Armagh substitute Niamh Reel was entrusted with a free kick to win the game against rivals Donegal. The Silverbridge sharp shooter kept her cool making no mistake despite the pressure of such an important moment.

Roll on to 2025 and Reel is in the form of her life. The hard working forward has nailed down a starting place in all three of the Orchard County’s National League games to date. On opening day away to Kerry, Reel hit 0-04 against the All-Ireland Champions. She followed that up with eight points against Ulster rivals, Tyrone, before finishing with 0-05 in Parnell Park against Dublin.

Next up for Reel and her Orchard companions are Mayo, who visit the Athletic Grounds on Saturday evening (22nd February) throw in @ 7.30pm.
