Seniors:
The Senior panel made the short trip away to Corduff on Wednesday evening last. Donaghmoyne were first out of the blocks and went with in a comfortable lead, after being playing with the wind, at half time. The second half proved to be the much poorer as Corduff clawed their way back and went on to win the game by two points. There are no games now for a number of weeks.
Juniors:
Our Junior side returned to action last Saturday evening as they faced Corduff away. The lads put in a very impressive display and they ran out comprehensive winners. Their next game is in the Quarter final of the Crawley Cup as they take on rivals Iniskeen at 7.45 away on Friday evening.
