Robert Emmets Notes Once again our Div 3 team had no game at the weekend as after travelling to Naomh Colmcille we discovered the were unable to field. This leaves us now without a competitive game for 4 weeks prior to the County Final, not ideal preparation. Lucky enough we had a good challenge game v Glenfin on Thur. Night and we wish to thank Glenfin for facilitating us with this game. Our monster County Final weekend " Night at the Races" takes place in Lynches Tavern on Fri. 10th.

Lets make sure we have plenty of colour on display at the Final. Our U.14 team put up an excellent performance in the County Semi-Final against Naomh Mhuire in Dunfanaghy at the weekend going down to just a 1 point defeat. This was a great performance from this wee team who have showed great improvement and commitment over the year and are a credit to the club. Although visible devastated at the final whistle the team can take great pride and consolation in their over all performance and if the stick together as a unit no their day will come. Their Mgm.
