U16 League:
The U16’s travelled to Tyholland last week for Round 3 of the league. Corduff dominated the scoreboard and lead from the start in what was a very exciting encounter. Both teams were on form with a huge tally of goals. The visitors were a real threat in what was an impressive team effort by Corduff with all players from defence to forwards putting in a massive performance. By the final whistle Corduff were victorious by a margin of 6 points on a scoreline of 6-04 to 5-13 and they registered their first win of the competition. Congratulations to all involved.
