Plunkett Cup victory
Well done to our under 10/12 lads who beat Garadice Gaels (amalgamation of Drumreilly and Aughawillan) in this years' Plunkett Cup. The lads won by a score of 3:20 to 1:03.
The panel; Sam Cullen, Paddy Wrynn, Eoin Hamill, Michael McBrien, Dylan Reynolds, Liam Reynolds, Paul Moran, Keelan Murphy, Oisin McCarthy, Naoise McManus, Brian Sweeney, Paul Honeyman, Eoin Connaughton, Cian McGovern and Captain Michael McKiernan.

Intermediate Club Championship
Ballinamore SOH Senior Team were in action against Ballinaglera in Cloone on Sunday and ran in a 3 point victory in a tight match which they won by 1:14 to 1:11. This was certainly a much needed victory after our draw in the first round and with our other adversaries Drumkeerin and Fenagh also playing out a draw in Pairc Seán it leaves Group 1 wide open with Ballinamore SOH and Drumkeerin on 3 points and Fenagh on 2. As we go into the final group of matches where Fenagh would fancy themselves to claim victory over Ballinaglera it means Ballinamore SOH would require victory against Drumkeerin in our final game to guarantee finishing with a quarter final berth. Fixture details TBC.

Under 14 Championship
Well done to the Ballinamore SOH under 14 lads who were victorious again Allen Gaels on Friday gone winning by a score of 4:12 to 0:6.

The victory leaves the lads top of the table on 3 points. Next up the lads take on St Mary's/Kiltoghert in round 3 in Pairc Naomh Mui on Friday 31st July at 7pm.
