In complete contrast to the arctic weather in Ireland, yesterday in Wellington, NZ , despite wet conditions, was positively balmy at 21 C for the finals of this year’s Gaelic Mixed Sevens at Ian Galloway Park. And what a day it turned out to be with two great semis and a thrilling final decider.
In the first semi, hot pot Welly’s Wellies were shocked by the goal scoring outfit, The Garage while in the other semi final last year’s champions Clonbony Abu had an easier time against Kelly’s Knights.
The final turned out to be a tantalizing affair with The Garage upsetting the odds. A powerful first half performance by The Garage had the champs under severe pressure and though Clonbony’ came back strongly in the second half, it was the ‘Garage who held on to take the title on a scoreline of 3-10 (19) to 3-05 (14).
Here to tell us about the finals and the rest of the results from Sunday is Wellington GAA President, Donal Kavanagh.
