Seniors:
The Intermediate Football League resumed during last weekend as our Seniors took on Sean Mc Dermotts at home on Sunday morning. This was a tight encounter played in poor weather conditions making it difficult for both teams to play good football. Come full time there was very little between the sides as Seans ran out single point victors over the hosts. They looked to bounce back on Wednesday evening when they took on Rockorry away from home. See nexts weeks notes for the result.

Mouthguards:
Gum Shields have now become compulsory for both training and matches in the season ahead. It’s important all juvenile players and senior players have their mouthguard in place before entering the playing grounds. At Annual Congress in April 2012, a new rule was enacted that made it mandatory to use a mouthguard in all Gaelic football matches and training sessions from January 1st 2013 for all age grades up to and including minor. The rule will now come into effect at Under 21 and Adult level from January 1st 2014. Players will not be covered under the player injury scheme if they are not wearing a mouthguard.
