Drumkeerin GAA club notes

August 23, 2010
IFC Quarter Final: Well done to the Drumkeerin lads who were victorious against Ballinaglera in the Intermediate football Championship quarter final after a fantastic second half display in Drumshanbo on Sunday.It was surely a game of two halves. Ballinaglera were completely on top in the first half, the half time score being 1.7 to 0.1. However Drumkeerin dominated the second half while Ballinaglera failed to score leaving the final score Drumkeerin 2.7 Ballinaglera 1.7. Drumkeerin will progess to the semi-final against near rivals Dromahair. Hard luck to Ballinaglera who put in a fine performance and we wish injured players Padraig Cornyn and Brendan Mc Gourty a speedy recovery.

JFC: Best of luck to the Junior team who will take on Ballinamore this week-end in the quarter-final. Please check fixtures for the time and venue.

MFC: The minors bet Melvin Gaels last Wednesday in the pitch on a scoreline of 3.10 to 0.6. They play Leitrim Gaels this evening (Wednesday) in Leitrim village. A win will guarantee them a spot in the final so best of luck lads and please support!
