Glasdrumman club notes

February 12, 2018

Hard to believe that a year has passed since Niamh McDowell was crowned All Ireland Scór na Óg  solo singing champion.   it has been a very busy year for our talented young songbird culminating in her singing " Amhrán na bhFiann "  in Croke Park  before the  All Ireland Ladies' Gaelic Football final which was televised and broadcast  worldwide.   She 's taken part in man events and has been recognised by many organisations for her outstanding achievement   among them being our very own Newry  Mourne and Down District Council.   Throughout this year she has proved to be a very humble, down to earth and accomplished performer who's acredit to her parents Cathy and John, her entire family her school St.Louis's Kilkeel and our Club .   Maith Thú Niamh We're all very proud of you and you'll always be our Champion. It's fitting  that one of her last outings was  here in South Down at the Scór Sinsir final in Mayobridge  on Sunday evening   opening proceedings  with  "  Amhrán na bhFiann " .
