A ten-year-old girl from Waterford's Gaelic Football washed up on a beach in Wales over the weekend.
Aoife Ní Niocaill was with her family at Woodstown beach in Waterford last Sunday when the ball floated out to sea.
In less than a week it had appeared on Llanrhystud beach in Wales, with Aoife's Dad Ruairi coming across a post about it on social media.
