WEXFORD YOUTHS VETERAN star Kylie Murphy has re-signed for the club for the 2023 season.
Murphy, who has been the Youths captain for over a decade, has played an instrumental role for the club since their first WNL campaign in 2011. She has also helped the Wexford outfit to four FAI Cup crowns while also scoring 105 goals in 263 appearances.
Wexford Youths were in contention to win the Women’s National League [WNL] this year but suffered a 4-0 defeat to defending champions, and back-to-back winners, Shelbourne on the final day of the campaign.

An inspirational leader from our very first WNL campaign, Kylie has made 263 appearances for the club, scoring 105 goals.
Shelbourne star Jessica Stapleton is also staying put after the club announced today that she has re-signed for the 2023 season.
“One of the best young players in the country commits to the Reds for next season,” read a statement on the club’s Twitter page today.
