Scor: Last Friday the 14th of march in omagh saw the last semi-final of this year’s senior scor. The Emyvale club were represented in three sections the ceili dancing , solo singing Amelia Mc Cormack and the set dancing , it was a great semi-final with a great standard unfortunately for the club had no joy with our three acts getting the runner up spot , it was particularly unlucky for the our set dancers who tied for 1st but with a flip of a coin lost the toss ,but our thanks to all involved in the three acts for all their hard work over the past few months .It was unfortunate that no Monaghan acts got to the ulster final this year and all performed very well.
