On Sunday 25th September Naomh Fionnbarra hosted a Charity Football Game between Togher Macra na Feirme and Togher Old Satrs(Legends) in aid of St.Vincent de Paul and Togher Macra na Feirme.  The event was a great success and was well attended.  The Old Stars wiped the floor with the Macra lads and employed some unusual tactics including the blanket squad effect all over the filed and at times it seemed like they had 5/6 extra men on the field!  Well done to all who took part.

There are plenty of upcoming fixtures this week for supporters and players alike, please come along and support our teams if you can make it.  For more fixtures details please see local press, Louth and Proud website and the Louth GAA website.
