Wexford Youths have confirmed the re-signing of Edel Kennedy for the 2022 season.

Kennedy has been a fantastic player for Youths and is one of the most consistent in the Women's National League. Her footballing talents are well known across footballing circles across the country.

She drew national media attention after her stunning strike in the FAI Cup Final against Shelbourne, which helped the club clinch last season's cup.

Kennedy has amassed over 200 appearances for Wexford, and overall, this is an astute acquisition by the Leinster side.
