A member of the Dohenys club in Dunmanway, Melissa won a first National Ladies Football League title in May of this year when Cork defeated Galway in the Division One decider. As a result of numerous eye-catching performances over the course of the league, Melissa was named at left corner back on the Division One Team of the League.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/shared2.sportsmanager.ie\/~corkgaa\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/12\/13afe7c461bb09cdde084326beaee439471537263110604283.jpg\" class=\"wp-image-1615 alignnone size-full\" width=\"720\" height=\"548\" srcset=\"https:\/\/gaacork.ie\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/12\/13afe7c461bb09cdde084326beaee439471537263110604283.jpg 720w, https:\/\/gaacork.ie\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/12\/13afe7c461bb09cdde084326beaee439471537263110604283-600x457.jpg 600w, https:\/\/gaacork.ie\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/12\/13afe7c461bb09cdde084326beaee439471537263110604283-300x228.jpg 300w, https:\/\/gaacork.ie\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/12\/13afe7c461bb09cdde084326beaee439471537263110604283-705x537.jpg 705w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 720px) 100vw, 720px\" \/><\/p>\n<p style=\"margin: 0px 0px 24px;padding: 0px;font-size: 19px;line-height: 30px;font-weight: 400;font-family:\">In June, Melissa claimed a second Munster Senior Ladies Football Championship medal following Cork\u2019s victory over Waterford. Cork bowed out of the All-Ireland Senior Championship at the semi-final stage to the eventual champions Dublin. However, Melissa\u2019s individual excellence throughout the Championship saw her receive a first All-Star award recently. Club success was also to follow this year as Melissa helped Dohenys to win a much coveted County Junior title in October. To complete a remarkable year, Melissa captained Munster last weekend to a second Ladies Football Interprovincial title in a row, a feat last achieved in 2004.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p> [&hellip;]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":4,"featured_media":1612,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"footnotes":""},"categories":[10,9,8],"tags":[36],"acf":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/gaacork.ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1613"}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/gaacork.ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/gaacork.ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/gaacork.ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/4"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/gaacork.ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=1613"}],"version-history":[{"count":2,"href":"https:\/\/gaacork.ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1613\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":1616,"href":"https:\/\/gaacork.ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1613\/revisions\/1616"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/gaacork.ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/1612"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/gaacork.ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=1613"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/gaacork.ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=1613"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/gaacork.ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=1613"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
