Juveniles
U6s: Training to continue Friday evening in the hall at 6pm
U8s: Well done to our U8s who took part in the Derrynoose tournament last Sunday. Many thanks to Derrynoose GFC for inviting us as they laid on a great day for the kids. All the hard work done over the summer was on full show as our boys acquitted themselves very well with some great skills on display.
U10s: Training to continue Wednesday at 6.30pm
U10 Community Games: Our Under 10 parish team didn’t have any luck in Athlone at the weekend but they are still County Champions and still Ulster Champions, something they will carry with them for the rest of their careers. This was a great experience for the boys, who were able to compete against very strong opposition showing that even though we’re from a small rural community our footballers are just as good as anybody in the country. Well done.
Hurlers: Congratulations to our U12 team who beat Truagh on Friday night to win the Hurling Shield. We look forward to continuing the great strides which have been made with the juvenile hurlers in the past two years. U8 and U10 Go Games in Cloghan this Wed at 6.45pm.
We always welcome new players, ages 6+.
O’Neill Park
We hosted another big crowd at O’Neill Park on Sunday last with a senior championship quarter final double header. There was much favourable comment from the patrons about ease of access and egress with our new car park and the large number of stewards favourably mentioned. Another double header on Saturday evening this week end with IFC action featuring Cremartin and Emyvale at 4.15pm followed by an SFC quarter final of Scotstown and Truagh.
