Drumkeerin GAA notes

August 25, 2009
Minor Final Our minor team are scheduled to take on Dromahaire later tonight in the Championship Dolan Cup final at 7pm. At the time of going to print I have no details of the venue but please check this paper for details. Relegation Play-offs Our relegation semi-final against Ballinaglera was called off as a result of monsoon conditions on Sunday. The game has been re-fixed for this Saturday the 29th of August at 6.30pm in Drumshanbo. Meanwhile our Juniors are in a similar position when they take on Melvin Gaels this Sunday in Ballinaglera at six. Under 14 girls The club would like to say a belated well done to our Under-14 Girls and their managers on their fantastic achievement on winning the Under-14 County title. The team defeated Fenagh on a scoreline of 9-11 to 1-10 in Leitrim Village. It is a tremendous achievement given that this is the girl's second title in as many years. Hopefully it bodes well for the future and we may see some senior titles comes to club. Once again well done to the panel of Kate Byrne, Tara Drugan, Megan Wynne, Deirdre Davitt, Mary Louise McCabe, Annie Marie Gallagher, Shannon O'Grady, Michaelaigh Nolan, Aoife McKenna, Shauna Clancy, Martina Gallagher, Linda McCabe and their managers. Underage fixtures Both our Under 12 and Under 16 teams are in action this week. The Under 12s are at home to Annaduff in the 13-a-side championship on Monday evening. Our Under 16s on the other hand take on Glencar/Manorhamilton in their first game of the Under 16 15-a-side championship. Good luck to both teams. Race night Our race night took place on the Bank holiday weekend earlier this month.

Thanks once again to everyone that lent their support. Hopefully we will meet again in 2009. Lotto The final lotto of the month takes place again this weekend.

Good luck Good luck to all of the member who return next week to either school or college. For some it is an exciting new time for other it is time to get down to work. Whatever the case the club wishes you the best of luck for the coming academic year. Apologies Apologies for the notes not appearing in the paper last week. A mixture of computer difficulties led to their absence.
