Abigail Phelan was the Clontarf heroine as she was the only successful bowler in the dreaded bowl-out to determine the winner of the All-Ireland Under 13 girls semi-final after no play was possible on Saturday in their tie with Lisburn. Clontarf were due to play the final against Bready on Sunday morning, but heavy rain saw that match postponed. It will now take place at Magheramason next Saturday, September 10th at 3.30pm..
