Over 400 girls left without football league this seasonLouise Walsh'Please just let us play competitive soccer,' urged young teenagers who have seemingly been left without league football this season. The girls were part of the Dublin Metropolitan Girls League (MGL) and many of the clubs transferred to the Dublin District Schoolboys/girls League (DDSL) when the MGL collapsed. "Numbers at training have fallen off because some of the girls have just lost the motivation to play sport. "So over 400 girls can't play kids football because of a technicality and there is nowhere else to go so it could be next September before we can join another league and play matches. "All the coaches involved are trying their best to arrange friendlies but we need a league to play in.
