Headline: Former St. Kilian’s student wins International Footballer of the Year Prize!
Many congratulations to former St. Kilian’s student, Chloe Mustaki, who has won the 2012 FAI International Under 17 Women’s Footballer of the Year Award. Chloe, who represented St. Kilian’s at the Under 15 Schools International Tournament in both 2009 and 2010, captaining Ireland to victory over Scotland, Wales and Northern Ireland on the latter occasion, has now represented Ireland at Under 17 and Under 19 level as well.

It is an immensely prestigious award for any player, and Chloe had to fight off competition from many of the famous Ireland Under 17 Women’s World Cup squad to win the accolade. Having captained the St. Kilian’s Senior team to Leinster Cup success and into the 2010 All-Ireland Senior B Final, Chloe has now firmly established her national, and indeed international reputation, as one of the most talented young players in women’s football.

All at St. Kilian’s wish Chloe every continued success in her career!
