The Senior mens team had their first outing of the year in Round 1 of the Paddy Sheelan Cup v St. Fechins in Beaulieu on Sunday.  The lads who were short a number of regulars were beaten by a strong St. Fechins team on a scoreline of 0-16(16) to 1-3(3).  The lads are out again next Sunday at 11:30am at home v Hunterstown Rovers and Sunday 1st March away to Clogherhead Dreadnots in Clogherhead.  Adult team training continues on Tuesday and Friday evenings at 7:30-8:30pm.  All players welcome.

Hard luck to the Conor Lenihan who played corner back on the DKIT College team that lost to Waterford IT in the Trench Cup quarter final on Wednesday February 11th.

Continued best wishes to our club committee member Mark McArdle who is a team leader in RTE's Operation Transformation.  Keep up the good work Mark.

Our Last Man Standing Competition for the National Football League commenced last week.  The results from Week 2 has dwindled the field down further and goijng into round 3 of the league there are only 11 people left standing! 

U-14 training re-started for 2015 last Saturday where all players were put through their paces. With plenty of talent on view the management team of Tom Kiernas, Philip Monaghan, Padraig Butterly & Daniel Woods are optimistic for the year ahead. Training is on again next Saturday, which will be confirmed by management.


Best of luck to Ben Devlin who has been nominated for the Drogheda Independent Sportstar of the Year for 2014 following his handball exploits. Hopefully, he can get as many votes as possible from everyone in the Togher area.
