Results: After a very hectic week particularly for our dual senior players who will be delighted with a bit of recovery time to lick their wounds, we had two wins in the Intermediate football league when we overcame Corduff and Killanny and we also won the semi -final of the Senior Hurling championship by defeating Carrickmacross HC setting up a meeting with Monaghan Harps in the final on Sunday 7th August.
