Baile Mhic An Aba 1-02 Tomás Dáibhis 1-15
All the hard winter training clicked into place for Thomas Davis under 16’s as they comprehensively defeated Ballymacnab in their home ground last Friday night. Caolan Marron opening the scoring with a well taken point after great approach work from centre half back Breandain McCorry. Both sides were battling hard in the opening exchanges but the Corrinshego lads always seemed to have that extra yard of pace being first to the ball and delivering good quality ball into the forwards where Keyonis Crozier had an excellent game with some well taken scores. On the 10 minute mark Lee Courtney knocked over our 3rd score of the night after great defensive work from Shane Keenan. Further pressure resulted in Declan Loye registering his first score of the evening after great support play from Caolan Marron & Matthew Loughran. The home side were battling hard but time and again their attacks were ended with great defensive work from Aaron Cinnamond & Conor Jennings. The lads finished the half strong with Keyonis Crozier hitting a goal to leave it 1-07 to no score at halftime.
The lads continued on where they left off and kept the scoreboard ticking as the home side tried hard to get back into it, their efforts rewarded with a penalty and 2 scores from frees but on the night the Thomas Davis lads pushed home their superiority with great support play and running off the ball that the home side found very hard to match. Good performances from Ronan McMahon, Aaron Cinnamond, Conor Jennings, Brendain McCorry, Dean Faloon & Shane Keenan in defence left no way through for Ballymacnab, up front Dylan Devlin hit some good scores along with Caolan Marron, Lee Courtney, Declan Loye & Matthew Loughran to secure the first 2 league points of the season.
Training continues every Sunday Morning at 10.45am at the Club Grounds. New members welcome. Contact Anthony Havern 07805853032
Under 18 Football / Peil Faoi 18
Monday night seen the minor team have their second away game in a row travelling to Keady, with hopes high after last weeks defeat of Shane O Neill’s this game had many highs and lows. The boys started the quicker than their opponents with the first 3 points coming from the boot of Jordan King followed by a great individual point from Decky Loye soloing the ball twenty yards into a gale force wind to pop it over the bar. St Oliver Plunketts were on top against the wind and another point from Decky Loye left the boys winning 0-5 0-1 after 20mins on the clock. A point from Keady followed a soft free then followed a sucker punch goal on the counter attack from Keady after a turnover close to their own goal that was worked the whole distance of the pitch to the back of the net. The scores now level the boys attacked once more with only minutes left to halftime Decky Loyes shot to the net was handled on the ground by a Keady defender which resulted in a penalty kick which was dispatched by Jordan King.
high into the back of the net to leave the scores at halftime 1-5 0-5 against the wind. The start of the second half some great midfield runs from Capt Mark Mc Ateer put pressure on the Keady defence but some poor choices from the forward line resulted in wasted opportunities time and again. Keady started to get more possesion around the field and started to grow in confidance to tag on a couple of points to leave it a one point game. It was 20mins into the second half before we registered a point and it would be on the 25min Phelim Finnegan popped over what was to be our 2nd and last score of the half. With 5mins left on the clock marksman Jordan King received his harsh second yellow to be then showed the red which resulted in more pressure on the defence as Keady had the momentum. A high free kick dropped short of the goal from Keady and a great catch on the line from Mark McAteer who was fouled coming out unnoticed by the ref ended up with the ball being toe poked into the back of the net. The two teams all square now and with one minute of injury time left another needless foul saw Keady win another free kick whih resulted in the winning point of the game for Keady. A dissapointing result for the boys after all the hard work of the first half but needless frees and expecting the wind to do the work resulted in the loss of two valuble points.
Training continuing every Monday 7.30pm at the Club Grounds. New members welcome. Contact Tony Loye 07810883454.

Thomas Davis Corrinshego 1-6 St. Moninnes Kileavy 0-9
Sunday 21st April 2013
Corrinshego are still awaiting their first win of the year but after a battling performance , the Thomas Davis lads are still undefeated in the Armagh All- County Junior B league.
Played in desperate underfoot conditions which weren’t helped by heavy and continuous rain throughout the first half both teams played an entertaining game with Kileavy equalising with a point in the 56thminute. However, it was our near neighbours and rivals who started the brightest and coped well with the driving rain and storm like conditions with them scoring a fine point in the opening minute. On 3minutes Kileavy doubled their total and this was extended to 0-3 to no score on 9mins. A good run by J. Dinsmore led to an unfortunate wide by C. Trainor, but Kileavy responded with another point. David Murphy got Corrinshego off the mark with a nice point and Ryan McWilliam doubled the total with a well taken point. Kileavy responded to leave the score at half time 05-02 in favour of the men from Kileavy.
Corrinshego started the second half with greater purpose and energy and on 34 mins Paul Heatley scored a goal after a mistake by Cathal Fearon in the Kileavy nets. On 37 minute Corrinshego nearly had the ball in the net again when only the goalpost kept the ball out. With greater intensity Corrinshego began to drive forward and on 40minutes R. McWilliam shot wide after a great built up involving, D.Murphy, C.Trainor and R.McWilliams. On45 mins D. Murphy scored an inspirational point from out on the right and this was followed up on 47 mins by P. Finnegan who turned his opponent and neatly placed the ball over the bar . Killeavy responded with a point but James Dinsmore replied with a point after been set up by Shane McArdle who had just entered the field for S. Trainor. On 52 mins L. Quinn scored a point from a free to give Corrinshego a one point lead but Killeavy equalised four minutes later. In the final minutes the game ebbed and flowed and could have gone either way. Player-manager Gerry O’Reilly came on for P. Finnegan in search of a winner, but alas time ran out. Was it a point dropped or a point gained, only time will tell, but Killeavy are a much stronger team than last year and will be in contention for league honours this year. Although a draw this was a much improved performance from last week. After the game our goalscorer P. Heatley was hospitalised , as a result of concussion, we all hope and wish Paul a speedy recovery.
Scores: P. Heatley 1-0, D. Murphy 0-2, L.Quinn 0-1, P. Finnegan 0-1, J, Dinsmore 0-1, R. McWilliams 0-1.

Crossmaglen Rangers
The unseasonable weather continues to play havoc with our home fixtures as we had to transfer our home game against Carrickcruppin to their field. Apologies to any supporter who missed the game , but I did not receive notification of change of venue until it was too late
Senior League
After the exertions of Saturday both on and off the field the boys could have been doing with a day off but unfortunately we could not get a postponement. Conditions were far from ideal with heavy showers and a strong wind blowing straight down the field. Playing with the elements we made a slow start and by the tenth minute the home side were two points to the good. We gradually settled and three points in arrow gave us a bit of breathing space, then in the twentieth minute disaster struck when we lost a player to a straight red card. It was back to the walls stuff after this with each side exchanging points to leave the half time score Rangers 0 – 4 Carrickcruppin 0 – 3 Having failed to take advantage of the elements we were really up against it and when our opponents scored the first two points of the half. To their credit the boys refused to lie down and for the next ten minutes took control unfortunately this was not reflected on the score board as we missed four easy scoring chances while conceding two points by giving the ball away. At last we found our range and two points in a row put us back in front with ten minutes left to play. After this we seemed to tire and taking advantage of the extra man our opponents finished of the game scoring four points to our two. Final score Rangers 0 – 7 Carrickcruppin 0 – 9
International Sevens
The event proved to be a big success and a sincere thanks to all involved to make the event a success. The winners were Rangers who defeated old rivals Ballinderry in a stirring final.

Senior Football
Forkhill 0-11 – Belleek 0-10
Forkhill edged out Belleek by the narrowest of margins in O’Doirinin Park on Sunday to maintain their 100% league record.
The first half was nip-and-tuck throughout with both teams competing for every ball. Despite the honest endeavor by both teams the first–half produced little in way of open football. Both sides found scores quite hard to come by and Forkhill were guilty of some uncharacteristic wides.
In the second half Forkhill stepped up a gear and began working the ball more directly into the heart of the Belleek defence. This certainly caused the Belleek defence a lot of problems and they began giving away score-able frees. Forkhill duly took advantage of this ill-discipline and deservedly opened up a three point lead heading into the last ten minutes.
Belleek persisted with their short-passing game and to their credit managed to work some good scores to close the gap to a single point entering the final minutes.
While the last few minutes were nerve wrecking for the loyal Forkhill supporters the lads on the field didn’t panic and deservedly held-on for a single point victory.
Final Score: Forkhill 0-11 – Belleek 0-10.
This was another very important win for Forkhill and despite the many injuries within the squad this has been a great start to the season.
O’Doirinin Park
The club has completed its negotiations with Newry & Mourne Council in respect to the purchase of O’Doirinin Park. The purchase will mark another historic landmark in the history of the GAA in Forkhill and be a great asset for future generations.

Keady Michael Dwyers
Senior Men
Keady Michael Dwyers travelled to Portadown on Sunday last in an Intermediate league fixture against Tir Na Og in search of their first league points. Weakened with the loss of a number of regular starters, the Dwyers produced a decent performance in the first half with goals from Martin Toner and Ryan McGale. However a Tir Na Og team who are something close to the side that reached an Intermediate championship final 2 years ago managed to keep the upper hand and open up a 5 point lead at half time leading 2-08 to 2-03. In the second half Tir Na Og probably sensed the vulnerability of this young Keady team and moved up a couple of gears to totally out play and out score their opponents. Keady’s only response in the second half was a solitary point from Brendan O’Hea. Full time score: Tir Na Og 4-20 v Keady 2-04
Keady Team lined out as follows: Stephen Bellew, Ciaran Hughes, Stephen Murray, Shayne Mone, Liam McKee, Paul Murray (0-1), Christopher Courtney, Stephen Renaghan (0-1), Nathan Greene, Rory Smyth, Brendan O’Hea (0-1), Ryan Conway, Martin Cunningham, Martin Toner (1-0), Ryan McGale (1-1) Subs Used : Sean Paul Doran, Brendan Lyons.
Senior Ladies Football
Due to administrative errors the senior ladies game v Sarsfields was unable to take place last Saturday night. Senior Ladies training continues on Tuesdays and Thursdays at the field for 7.15pm sharp.
Minor
The Minor’s hosted the St.Oliver Plunketts Monday 15th April in Gerard McGleenan Park recording their first win. It was St. Oliver Plunketts who started the brightest going into a 5 point to a single reply from a Christopher McGuinness free. Keady cut the gap to the minimum with an excellent move superbly finished to the back of the net by Padraig McGale. The visitors response was immediate when they converted a penalty to leave the half time score Keady 1-01 v St Oliver Plunketts 1-05. For the second half Keady introduced Connor Hughes for Barry McGinn. Keady started the second half brightly and scored a goal through John Carroll. But the visitors replied with 2 straight points to take a 3 point lead. Keady introduced a second sub bringing on Ryan Fitzsimmons for John Carroll. Keady started to get the upper hand and scored 3 excellent points through Padraig McGale, Christopher McGuinness and captain Ryan Donnelly. With the game entering added time Keady drove forward and it was Ryan Donnelly who carried the ball from midfield and creating the space to score a superb point to seal a hard earned win.
Full time score: Keady Michael Dwyers 2-05 v 0-10 St Oliver Plunketts
Keady team and scorers: Mark Woods, Martin Hughes, Ryan O’Connor, Patrick Shortt, Christopher McGuinness (0-2), Sean Gribben, Ryan Donnelly (0-2), Jordan McGleenan, Barry McGinn, Colm Mone, Barry Shortt, Padraig McGale (1-1), John Carroll (1-0), Subs: Connor Hughes, Ryan Fitizsimmons, Dylan McKenna.
Under 16
The under 16’s hosted Carrickcruppen on Thursday night last in Gerard McGleenan Park. On a wet and breezy night and underfoot conditions not ideal for a free flowing football both teams deserve credit for the highly entertaining game produced witnessed by the small band of supporters who were in attendance. It was Carrickcruppen who made the better start racing into a 3 points to no score lead. Keady however fought back and by half time the game was finally balanced at 5 points each. In the second half Keady dominated possession and posing a threat each time they went on the attack. As so often the case with underage matches, goals win matches and Keady produced 4 of their own through Daire Jones (2), Ryan Fitzsimmons and Caolan McCooey with Carrickcruppen registered one for themselves. The win sees Keady pick up their first points of the campaign so well done to all involved.
Full time score Keady 4-07 v 1-07 Carrickcruppen
Keady Team and scorers from: Jamie-Lee Beattie, Dylan McKenna, Caolan Mone, Jack Molloy, Adam Nugent, Oisin McKee (0-1), Caolan McCooey (1-0), Robbie McEneaney, Daire Jones (2-1), Paudie Mallon (0-1), Ryan Fitzsimmons (1-02), Eoghan Mone, Conor Shortt (0-1), Aaron Cunningham, Padraig Farrell (0-1), Sean McCabe, Philip Coyle, Shane McNamee, Blaine Cassidy.
Under 14
The Under 14’s travelled to Killeavy last Tuesday night and for the second week running are finding Division 1 football a very steep learning curve. The lads were simply out classed and out muscled in a very one sided encounter. This is a young under 14 team who give a 100% effort but so far in this section are getting it difficult to compete with the physicality of the opposition. All involved are hoping for some good fortune to come their way sooner rather later.

Killeavy
Killeavy lose out at home
Goals win games and a hat-trick of second half goals from Armagh Harps proved to be enough to send them back to the cathedral city with maximum points from a tempestuous encounter. Right from the start of the match there were individual battles taking place all over the field and things eventually boiled over with both teams involved in a mass brawl just on the half-time whistle. At that stage, Killeavy led by 1.04 to 0.05 with the goal following a fine move that saw Niall O’Neill win the ball, transfer to Ciaron O’Hanlon who drew the defence before setting Michael Murphy in the clear to calmly slot the ball home. Killeavy were full value for their lead and could have been more ahead had they showed a little more composure in front of the nets.
The second half was totally different as Harps, now wind assisted, grabbed control of the game. Their eventual breakthrough was delayed when Sean O’Hanlon saved from the penalty spot but they drew level when they poked home from short range after Killeavy had passed up several chances to clear their lines. Killeavy regrouped and took the lead again with a Gerard Byrne free but when a home attack broke down, Harps went the whole length of the field to fire home. Two minutes later it was virtually all over when once again Harps were able to move the ball at speed through a shell shocked defence to score the match clinching goal.
Best for Killeavy on the day were Sean O’Hanlon, James Donnelly and Michael Murphy but the team’s lack of size and strength were cruelly exposed on the day by a physical Harps team. Management will be hoping for a quick return for our injured and absent players as it is already looking like being a long and difficult season ahead.
Seconds get off the mark
Killeavy seconds scored the last two points of their home league encounter with Corrinshego to snatch a share of the spoils in their first home outing of the year. Killeavy will be well pleased with this result given that their team was made up mostly from u21 players against a far more experienced Corrinshego outfit. Players to catch the eye included Joe Grant and Robbie Hamill though it was the old campaigner Johnny McKevitt whose introduction eventually led to the match tying scores. Killeavy, playing with the wind, were 0.05 – 0.02 ahead at half-time but were soon rocked by a Corrinshego goal. Nevertheless, the young team battled all the way to the final whistle and fully desrved their draw. Their next match will be against Dromintee on Wednesday week.

St Patrick’s CullyhannaArmagh Senior League: St Patrick’s 0-11 Harps 1-12
Cullyhanna’s campaign in the Senior League got off to a belated start last Friday as the unusual venue of the College field in Armagh hosted our meeting with Armagh Harps. The local side had much the better of the early exchanges and were three points to the good before Cullyhanna’s first score of the season came from a Kyle McEvoy free, awarded after Eugene Casey had been hauled down when well positioned for a goal opportunity. Playing with the advantage of the pitch’s slight elevation, Harps were well on top throughout the first half and kicked another 1-2 before a second Kyle McEvoy pointed free put six points between the sides 9 minutes before the break. Six points was to remain the deficit by half-time as the sides exchanged a brace of points, Harps converting two frees with Cullyhanna benefitting from a great long range Tony Donnelly point and a superb individual run and point from Eugene Casey.
St Pat’s needed a good start to the second period but it was Harps who drew first blood with a point 2 minutes into the half. A minute later, St Pat’s produced their best move of the match as Eugene Casey burst through the Harps defence, exchanged passes with Paudie McCreesh before unleashing a thunderous shot which rattled off the Harps crossbar. Happily for Cullyhanna, possession was recycled to Aidan Nugent who kicked a point. The pattern of play was fairly even at this stage but Cullyhanna struggled to close the gap significantly. The sides exchanged a pair of points each with Cullyhanna’s two scores coming from Eugene Casey pointed frees. Another pointed free gave Harps a 7 point cushion 18 minutes from time before St Pat’s threatened a revival with their best phase of match midway through the second half. A good point from Aidan Nugent was followed by a brace of Eugene Casey frees as the Harps lead was reduced to four. Unfortunately, this was as close as Cullyhanna were to get with a Harps point 8 minutes from time giving them an adequate cushion. St Pat’s did try manfully to rescue the situation but were guilty of squandering some good chances to put Harps under serious pressure. In the end, the Cullyhanna side could only manage one more point from a Kyle McEvoy free as Harps ran out deserving deserving victors.
In truth this was a lacklustre effort from an understrength Cullyhanna side which never really looked like winning the match. Micky Murray and Kevin Toner battled well in defence while Aidan Nugent kicked a couple of nice points with Eugene Casey very much to the forefront of most of the positive play from Cullyhanna.
Starting XV: Deaglan McArdle; Ciaran Nugent, Kevin Toner, Micky Murray; Niall McShane, Paudie McCreesh, Sean Connell; Gary McCooey, Mal Mackin; Tony Donnelly (0-1), Eugene Casey (0-5), Aidan Nugent (0-2); Rory O’Neill, Gareth Mackin, Kyle McEvoy (0-3). Sub Used: Stephen Reel
Armagh Senior League: St Patrick’s 1-13 St Peter’s 0-9
The senior side had an early opportunity to make amends for Friday’s loss with a match against St Peter’s played in interchanging spells of brilliant sunshine and heavy rain on Sunday afternoon. With our Cullyhanna pitch still unplayable, this “home” game had to be played at the excellent facilities of the Abbey CBS in Newry. While the unfamiliar surroundings can’t be used as an excuse for poor fare, it certainly took both sides some time to find their feet in an uneventful opening few minutes. St Pat’s commenced the scoring nine minutes in as Gareth Mackin made a dangerous solo run along the end line before transferring possession. The adaptable Ciaran Nugent, a corner back on Friday night but now engaged at corner forward, was on hand to kick a fine point. St Peter’s levelled a couple of minutes later but Gareth Mackin was involved once more as Cullyhanna regained the lead thanks to his fine point from a difficult angle. A brace of pointed frees from Tony Donnelly edged Cullyhanna further in front before the crucial score of the match arrived when a good Cullyhanna passing move put Barry McConville through on goal. McConville made no mistake with the opportunity, firing past the goalkeeper for a St Pat’s goal. This score opened up a 6 point advantage though the Lurgan men rallied well before the break, kicking two points to leave the half-time score St Patrick’s 1-4 St Peter’s 0-3.
The match was still very much in the balance at the break but Cullyhanna emerged for the second half in determined fashion with Ciaran Nugent releasing his cousin Aidan for the first score of the half 4 minutes in. The point of the match arrived 9 minutes into the half as Gary McCooey initiated a free flowing St Pat’s attack which involved Tony Donnelly and Ciaran McKeever before the ball returned to McCooey who kicked an excellent point. Three points in a row looked to have given St Pat’s a commanding advantage but St Peter’s responded with their own trio of scores to trail by only four points with 12 minutes remaining. An excellent point from distance by Tony Donnelly and a fine pointed effort from Barry McConville steadied the Cullyhanna ship. St Peter’s never really looked like creating the goal they needed to get back into the match with occasional point rarely likely to trouble a Cullyhanna side who were in fine scoring fettle themselves. Points from Gary McCooey and adventurous corner back Micky Murray kept St Peter’s at bay while a Tony Donnelly free and a fisted Barry McConville effort were the final Cullyhanna scores of the day as St Pat’s ran out comfortable victors by 1-13 to 0-9.
This was a much improved performance from a Cullyhanna side who generally showed a little more attacking spark than had been apparent earlier in the weekend. St Peter’s are very much finding their feet at this level and shorn of their senior county player, it was perhaps no surprise that Cullyhanna proved too strong. Tougher assignments will no doubt await Jody Gormley’s troops as they bid to make a strong start in the League. Best on the day for St Pat’s were Barry McConville who excelled as an attacking midfielder, Tony Donnelly, Gary McCooey and the hardworking Ciaran Nugent.
Starting XV: Conor O’Neill; Sean Connell, Kevin Toner, Micky Murray (0-1), Niall McShane, Paudie McCreesh, Stephen Reel; Barry McConville (1-2), Mal Mackin (0-1); Aidan Nugent (0-1), Ciaran McKeever, Tony Donnelly (0-4); Ciaran Nugent (0-1), Gary McCooey (0-2), Gareth Mackin (0-1)
Junior League St Patrick’s II 0-10 Lissummon 2-20
The senior II team suffered a heavy defeat in their second league match against Lissummon on Friday night last. Injuries deprived the team of at least 3 central players and although those on duty battled admirably, the pace, strength and accuracy of the opposition proved telling at the end. A Lissummon goal after five minutes set the tone for the night and although St. Pat’s drew level midway through the half with points from Ciaran O’Neill, John Mone and Paudie Mackin, the opposition upped their performance and went into the break with a 7 point lead. The second half began in promising fashion for Cullyhanna with a fine Miceal Connolly point but after that Lissummon regained control of the game and went on to secure a comfortable victory.
Sympathy
Our sincere condolences to Joan O’Hare and the entire O’Hare family on the death of her sister Bridget Dickinson. May she Rest in Peace.

Wolfe Tones and St Enda’s Derrymacash
The weekend past proved to be a great weekend for our club starting with a great win by our Under 16 camogs away to Killeavy. Well done to all of the camogie girls on organising the Big Breakfast event on Sunday morning, which proved extremely successful, with over 270 breakfasts served and a sum of £1,100 raised. Maith sibh a chailíní. Sunday also proved successful for our Under 8 and Under 10 footballers as they won all four games against Glenavy. And the feel good factor continued with the senior footballers putting in a good performance against Mullaghbane in their first competitive game on the new field and claiming the two points.
Peil/ Football
Mullaghbane were the visitors to Páirc na Ropairí on Sunday and it was our guests who got off to the best start with a goal after 5 minutes. John Toal responded for the Tones, but the Tones were put under extra pressure when they were reduced to 14 men early on. A Mullaghbane point on 15 minutes however would prove to be their final attack of the half and the Tones regrouped and showed great spirit for the next 20 minutes in spite of being a man down. Niall Geoghegan proved his accuracy and was able to punish the Mullaghbane defence with five converted frees to leave the half-time score Tones 0-6 Mullaghbane 1-1. The start of the second half proved as poor as the first for the home team with Mullaghbane adding three points within the first eight minutes. But the introduction of James Doyle proved a master stroke as he finished to the net to put the Tones back in front. Niall Geoghegan added another couple of scores, this time from play, and the large home support was sent into raptures with Niall Lennon finishing emphatically for the second goal. The Tones were well in control at this stage and two late scores from Mullaghbane seemed to be too little too late. A point from Niall Lennon deep into injury time confirmed the result and the two points for the Tones. This was a good performance from the Tones, particularly at the back, but there is plenty of work ahead this week before a visit to Middletown on Sunday at 2.
The minor footballers lost to Tír na nÓg last Monday, but have a chance to make amends on Monday 22 April when they visit St Paul’s. They will be home to Clan na Gael the following week on Monday 29 April with both games starting at 6.45pm. The Under 16s had a good win against Clan na Gael on Thursday on a score of 3-13 to 2-6, with a particularly pleasing performance in the second half. They have a bye in the league this week and will play Ballymacnab in a challenge game on Thursday 25 April. The Under 14s lost out to St Peter’s last week and will hope to get a better result when they host Clan na Gael this Tuesday 23 April and visit St Paul’s Tuesday 30 April. The Under 10s were narrowly defeated by St Paul’s on Monday evening, but made amends with convincing wins over Glenavy on Sunday. The Under 8s also put in good displays against Glenavy to ensure the Under 8s and Under 10s claimed four wins in all four games on Sunday morning. Our reserve footballers begin their league campaign on Wednesday evening when they travel to Annaghmore to face Naomh Eoin.
Gaelic4Mothers has now recommenced with a large number of participants training at the club on Friday evening. Everyone is welcome to attend these enjoyable sessions to keep fit. The girls meet up every Friday at the club at 7pm.

Caomógaíocht/ Camogie
Our Under 16 camogie team had a great win up in Killeavy on Saturday, with the score finishing St Enda’s 7.3 Killeavy 4.2. Well done girls. Maith sibh. The girls were back at the club on Sunday morning along with the senior camógs to help out at the very successful Big Breakfast morning. The breakfast created a great buzz around the club and it was fantastic to see the community spirit on show on Sunday morning. Well done to all the girls for their hard work and congratulations on the success of this initiative. The senior camogie team face Clan na Gael on Sunday 28 April. Keep an eye on the club Facebook and Twitter pages for updates.
