Irish FA Women's Domestic Football Manager, Sara Booth said:"This is the biggest event of the schools calendar for girls' football and we are just so proud of all the four teams who participated today.

"As part of the Irish FA Girls' and Women's Football Plan, the Association invests a significant amount of resources in schools football and it is encouraging to see the standard of football proving every year.

"It is also tremendous to see the amount of girls who were here today who also play for their local women's clubs. Sion Swifts, Killen Rangers Ladies and Crusaders Strikers had great representation here today and it is testimony to the excellent work some of our women's clubs are doing to consolidate school - club links."
