Dr.McKenna Cup: A big thank you to everyone who helped with the match on Sunday. With only a paltry crowd at the game it was as Malachy Clerkin put it “a few hundred hardy souls ambling down the hill to St.Tiarnachs park like bear’s coming out of hibernation. They got their reward too, with a not unpleasant game that toppled Derry’s way in the end.” This Sunday all roads lead to Clones again for our Dr.McKenna 2nd round match against St.Mary’s University College, throw in at 2pm and your support would be appreciated.
Executive Meeting: on Thursday in the Creighton at 8pm. All executive members are requested to attend with some pressing matters on the agenda, including a date for the dinner dance in February.
Congratulations to Daragh Graham and Tanya Morgan who celebrated their wedding last week in the Kilmore Hotel. A great day had by all and we wish them a long and happy life together. Their away to the sun for the honeymoon and we hope they take a bit of the weather back with them for a change from the current high winds and rain we’re getting.
Congratulations: to James Mealiff and Eoin McQuaid who have been selected to be part of the county Minor team for this coming season. These talented players are hard at work in the gym at present and we wish them well for the coming season.
Congratulations to David Freeman who is back training with the county U21’s. A year older and more experienced we’re hoping to see more of David this year. These are really great days for the club; we’re represented on all the juvenile development squads as well as minor, senior and under 21’s. The best of luck to all our boys and we wish them all well.
