Drumhowan Club Notes

Seniors – Scotstown 0-17 Drumhowan 0-14 We went under to Scotstown on Sunday last in a high scoring game. After a good first half we failed to build on that in the second half. We play Oram at home on this Wednesday 12th at 7pm and are away to Clones on next Saturday 15th at 7pm

Minors – St Pats went under to Corduff/Donaghmoyne last week. We were five points up at half time but we fell away in the second half. We were due to go to Truagh on Tuesday evening gone past.

U16  St Pats lost out to Carrickmacross on Friday evening last with a very much depleted squad. They play Monaghan Harps on this Thursday evening at 7pm in Ballybay.

U14  Drumhowan 3-12  Doohamlet 4-8  We had an exciting one point win over Doohamlet on Saturday last. There was little between the teams all through the game and some strong goal line defending at the end left us with the narrow win. Next game is at home to Tyholland on Saturday 22nd April at 2pm.

U12 – We play Killeevan in the last round of the Spring League on this Saturday at 4pm in Newbliss. All players should be there for 3.30pm and note the later start time.
