Sunday Morning Coaching – Our under-age coaching continues on the main pitch on Sunday mornings from 11.30 -1pm.

Seniors –had a 2 point win at home to Toome on Wednesday last. This weekend we are out against Scotsown in the backdoor of the championship – St Mellans Park Truagh will play host to this game with a 7pm throw in.

U-14 –Our U-14’s produced a heroic performance on Tuesday last to retain the Div 3 championship courtesy of a 5-08 to 2-11 win over Latton. Heavy rain on the evening left conditions far from ideal for this clash but great credit must go to both teams for producing a marvellous display of football.  The never say die attitude, energy and skill of this group of young men have been key attributes in their successful run throughout the championship and ultimately propelled them to victory on the night. The squad of players that represented the club was Premek Karkut, Tommy Monaghan, Robert Haynes, Adam Murtagh, Leon McCabe, Caine Toal, Kian McAree, Blain Smith, Darragh Hamill, Regan McAree, Caolain Reilly, Donal Leonard, Paul Monaghan, Stephen McCluskey, Brendan Reilly, Dylan McCaffrey, Jamie Genoe McMahon.  Following the presentation of the cup to captain Regan McAree, the team and supporters returned to Smithboro for refreshments and further celebrations.

On Saturday last we returned to league action and recorded a 4-19 to 5-13 away to Clontibret. Next game is at home to Toome this Saturday at 12noon.

U-16 – return to league action tonight after a break for the exams with an away game to Clones. Throw in time 7.30pm.

U12 – The U12 league is progressing steadily and the group played their third game at home to Sean McDermotts on Tuesday last. This game is followed by an away fixture to Toome on Saturday 29^th June at 12noon.
