Club Notes May 21st 2012

After a tough first half the seniors pulled away in the second to take the points against Greencastle to remain unbeaten in the league.

The reserves were pushed all the way but came out on top with some of our more experienced players proving to be the difference.

Our next fixture is Eglish away on Sunday at 6 and 7.30 when we will have the honour of playing at the official opening of Páirc Chormaic.

The minor game with Loughmacrory is postponed to a later date due to exams this week. The U16 boy’s season continues to go from strength to strength with a strong win over Omagh in Healy Park last Saturday.

The U-14’s lost out to Dromore last week but redeemed themselves with a win over Cappagh on Monday night past. They play Greencastle on Saturday at 4pm away.
