We are thrilled to announce the re-signing of defender Sarah Kiernan until at least the end of the 2023 SSE Airtricity Women’s Premier Division.
Kiernan joined Rovers Under 17 Women’s team in 2018 when the team was first formed and has come through the academy and become a regular in our Senior side in 2022.
The Grange native came through Benbulben FC’s academy, who compete in the local Sligo/Leitrim Youths league before signing for Rovers four years ago.
Manager Steve Feeney is delighted to have Kiernan back on board:
‘’I am very happy to see Sarah re-sign with us today.
‘’Sarah become an important part of the side after breaking into the team coming through the Academy.
‘’In particular, her defensive skills added to her set-piece delivery, she is a real asset.
‘’We are looking forward to working with her again in 2023’’.
Sarah will join up with her fellow Bit O’ Red team-mates in early January when the side return to The Showgrounds for pre-season training.
Sarah is delighted to be back on board again for 2023:
‘’I’m delighted to have re-signed for the 2023 season.
‘’We had a really good first season and, we hope to push on this season.
‘’I’m grateful to Steve, the Management and previous Academy Managers for helping me get to this stage.’’
The team host Shamrock Rovers on the opening day at The Showgrounds on March 4th 2023. Kick off this season will be 5pm for all home matches as opposed to last season’s kick off time of 2pm.
Season Tickets go on sale for just €50 in January.
