The day started with blitz for U12 football and Hurling skills competitions. The "Stars" of the future showed the great coaching work been done at this level every week and how much hard work and practice all these young players put into perfecting their skills of both Football and Hurling. In the evening then "Stars" of era's gone by took to the field and provided some great entertainment to all who came out to support. On the field Stranorlar featured former greats in Jimmy Phair, Liam Crumlish, Luke Gavigan Dessie McFeely, and Club Chairman Terry O'Reilly. Ballybofey took to the field with legendry stars like PJ McGowan, Sean "Farrah" Gallen, Noel McGowan Gerard McDermott, Paul Finn Jim Doherty and Top scorer on the day Noel McGowan. The game played in a good spirit was refereed well by Kieran McShea although Stranorlar were aggrieved that a clear trip on the Club Chairman went unpunished in the first half. Both Team Managers Margaret and Denise were happy with the overall performance from all who togged out. After the match everyone moved upstairs with some of the older players having to use the lift where the Barbeque and refreshments were in big demand.
