Coláiste Cholmcille are looking to win their first Ulster senior title this weekend
It'll be an all-Donegal Ulster Senior E School Girls final this Friday in the Donegal GAA Centre in Convoy when Coláiste Cholmcille takes on Coláiste na Carraige at 11.30am.
These two teams are far from strangers and met in a tightly competitive blitz game at the beginning of the competition in Letterkenny last October where CCBS came out the winners of the group.
Since then, both teams progressed on opposite sides of the competition and have played very tough opposition since that day in their quarter-final and semi-finals, and now they will meet again to see who the overall winners will be of this season’s competition.

The Ballyshannon school, Coláiste Cholmcille, had great success last year in winning the overall prize in the Lidl Plus competition of €50,000 to go towards the development of Ladies Gaelic football in the school.
The school invested that money in developing their sports teams with new equipment for training and improving the pitch facilities.
The girls are reaping the awards and after six years since their last Ulster final win in the Junior competition, they're now back in an Ulster Schools Final as they look to win their first in the school’s history
For Coláiste na Carraige, they won two of their three group games in Letterkenny back in October, before securing a fantastic quarter-final victory over Coláiste Feirste (Belfast) in MUSA Cookstown in November before winning their semi-final before Christmas.
Coláiste na Carraige are the reigning Ulster champions having beaten St Mogue’s College (Cavan) by 4-18 to 1-6 to lift the provincial post-primary schools U-20 development cup, in Ballyshannon in December 2023.
