Our U14 girls played Donaghmore on Saturday (9th) in a challenge game due to the arranged blitz not being able to go ahead. They had a good outing and the girls are improving more and more each week. Keep up the good work! Training continues this Wednesday (13th) in St Ciarans 3G from 7 > 8pm.  A challenge game is also being arranged for the following Wednesday (20th), details to be confirmed.

 

The U14 boys had a hard fought 2 point victory to open their league campaign away to Coalisland on Saturday (9th) on a final scoreline of 4-17 to 6-09. Playing in difficult conditions and aided by a strong breeze the lads built up a 10 point lead at the break thanks to the scoring exploits of Daniel Rafferty and Conor McCool assisted by the hard work of Darragh Nugent. It was a backs to the wall effort in the 2nd half against the breeze but thanks to strong defensive play from Luke Donnelly, Eoin McGlinchey and Caolan McElvogue the lads were able to emerge with a 2 point win. Next league game is home to the Moy on the weekend of the 23rd and 24th March. Training continues as normal on Monday evening at the main training pitch and Wednesday evening at St.Ciarans school from 7.00 > 8.15pm.
