Div 1 League
Our Div 1 Team travelled to Dromahaire on Sunday morning last and came away with full points. This was a great performance following the disappointment of the Championship, the team were minus many of our big guns but those who travelled played their hearts out. The very young Alan Tuthill made his senior debut and gave a man of the match performance. The team have now qualified for the Div 1 final with Manorhamilton
Under 12
Last Monday we were treated to a great game in Gortletteragh when the Mohill lads just about got the upper hand in a fiercely contested game. Darragh Gaffey pulled off some great saves while Gearóid Reynolds, John Heslin, Liam Ellis, Keoghan Curran,
Niall McNabola and Dónal Duignan 0-2 defended like veterans, Conor Quinn 0-1, Conor Mulligan 3-3 just shaded it at centre field, Conor Macklin 1-5 , Thomas McNabola 1-0, Finn Cassells and Aengus McCrann 1-1 are our classy forwards Matthew Murphy and Jordan Tighe played well when introduced.
Under 16
