St. Louis School Team. Commiserations to the Magheracloone representatives on the St. Louis team that was so narrowly defeated in the All Ireland Colleges final on Saturday. It was an outstanding achievement to reach a final after 123 years and it is a pity that the ultimate target was not reached. I’m sure that we will see many of these young ladies representing club and county in years to come. The future of Monaghan Ladies football is assured.
Monthly Meeting. April’s monthly meeting will be held in the clubrooms on Tuesday 19th at 8.30 p.m.
All club members are welcome to attend.
