Carrigallen GAA Club Notes 12/03/2018

Barna Recycling u13s – St Joseph’s U13’s made the journey up to North Leitrim on Saturday afternoon to take on Glencar Manor in the latest round of Division 1 league. Our lads were very slow to get going and found themselves 3-3 to no score behind after 10 mins. They then hit a purple patch for the remainder of the half and managed to edge in front by halftime on a scoreline of St Joseph’s 3-8 Glencar Manor 3-5. Glencar Manor had wind advantage in the second half and took control of proceedings again to build up a 7 point lead and looked to be heading for victory but the St Josephs lads stuck at it and picked off some fine scores to ensure a share of the spoils on a final scoreline of St Joseph’s 4-12 Glencar Manor 6-6. A draw was a fair result for a very exciting game that neither team deserved to lose. St Joseph’s squad on the day was Fionnan Harte, Ben Harte, Cian Nolan, Padraig Maguire, Jack Mc Intyre, Eanna Mc Namara, Kevin Doherty, Kalum Mc Loughlin, Harry Wilson, Matthew Mc Cabe, Darren Shortt, Gary Mitchell, Tommy Kearney, Joey Mc Brien, Kian Mc Hugh, Gavin Gallogly, Jamie Stoddart, Conor Shortt, Conor Downes.
> Well done to both teams and referee for providing a very entertaining game in less than ideal weather conditions and wishing a speedy recovery to Glencar Manor player who went off injured at start of second half. Congratulations also to those players on the St Joseph’s team who made their Confirmation on Friday evening and thanks to parents who provided transport to the game.Newtowngore Engineering U17’s – Our U17’s suffered a heavy defeat at the hands of Sean O’Heslins in Ballinamore last Saturday afternoon. Next game is a home game against Fenagh this weekend. Time & date TBC.

Bornacoola GAA Club Notes 12/03/2018

Swan Bar Division 4 – It was a case of the Great Escape for the Junior team as a late late rally salvaged victory from the jaws of defeat in last Saturday evening’s opening round of the Division 4 league when Kiltubrid were the visitors to Dromod. An even first half saw the Bors hold a slender 0-3 to 0-2 lead at half time; two goals for the visitors in the second period left them 4 points clear entering the dying minutes. However, a late fisted goal from midfielder Colm Farrell, and two late points, including the winner from super sub Marc Mc Keon, ensured the Bors emerged with a narrow 1-8 to 2-4 victory. Team on duty was Feargal Mc Gill, Kevin Mulligan, David Mulligan, Patrick Kozak, Liam Mulligan, Mervyn Howard, Gearoid Mulligan, Ronan Mulligan, Colm Farrell, Roy Keenan, Shane Conroy, Tony Shanley, Danny Farrell, Trevor Howard and Robert O’Beirne. Subs used were Luke Jones, Marc Mc Keon, Kevin Shanley and John Barnes Shanley.

Registration Day – Our 2018 Club Registration Day will take place on Saturday 24th March for all underage, for Mothers and others and for anyone interested in finding out more or getting involved with club. We’ll have further details in the coming weeks.

Minors – Rinn Gaels travelled to Manorhamilton on Saturday morning last for the 3rd Round of the minor league. Unfortunately, it was the hosts who had the better of a hard-fought game with Glencar/Manorhamilton emerging with a 3-12 to 3-5 victory.  

Sympathies – Our deepest sympathies are extended to the O Riordan (Clooncolory) and Reynolds (Gortletteragh) families on the passing of Neil’s mother Lilly in Dublin last week. Ar dheis Dé go raibh sí.

Scór – Well done to our Question Time team of Aidan Dockery, Michael Stenson, John Woods and Padraig Reilly who captured the County title in Drumshanbo on Saturday night last and to Aidan who triumphed in the Recitation also. The Connacht final takes place on Bank Holiday Monday next in Lecarrow, Co Roscommon. It was a double night of celebration for Michael Patrick as he claimed €2000 in the Leitrim GAA Supporters Club draw on the same night!

 U2 Ticket Competition – The Club is currently running a draw for two tickets to see U2 in the 3Arena in Dublin on November 6th next. Tickets for the draw are just €10 each and you can enter on our website www.bornacoola.gaa.ie/home/u2-ticket-fundraiser

Ladies Football – Bornacoola/St Mary’s Ladies team got their 2018 League season underway on Sunday morning last as they hosted Keeldra Gaels in Páirc Naomh Mhuire. Following a strong first half showing after which the girls led by 4-7 to 1-4, they picked up from where they left off on the resumption to record a 7-10 to 1-5 victory. Well done girls on a positive start to your competitive season. On duty, on Sunday morning last were Caroline Guckian, Jasmine Maye, Cora McCauley, Hannah Reynolds, Lorraine Guckian, Emily Reynolds, Kasey Bruen, Allison McKeon, Aisling Leahy, Sara Crowe, Hannah Bird, Sarah Reynolds, Lisa Guckian, Rachel McGarry, Enya Guckian, Ellen Woods and Tanya Boyle.

Mohill GAA Club Notes 12/03/2013

Ann Guckian RIP – The club extends sympathy to the family of Mrs. Ann Guckian Hill St who passed away last week. Ann’s sons Padraig and Liam played in the 70s for Mohill and her grandchildren David, Paul, Stephen and Aisling Conaty were players in recent times. Ar dheis Dé go raibh sí

Swan Bar Div 4 – This was the first adult game of the year and we saw the emergence of some very young players and also the return of a not so old Phillip Casserly who promised that he would come back at some stage and play for Mohill. True to his word he played his heart out on Sunday last but Aughavas were the winners at the end of a very exciting encounter. Our panel and scorers was, J Farry, R Bohan, K Reilly, A Tuthill, P ONeill, P Casserly, C Baxter, L Rowley 0-1, J Reynolds, Jordan McGuinness 0-1, J McGuinness 0-1, S Kennedy 0-7, J Boyle 0-1, Niall Flynn, David Wynne, B Kilrane, J Barry,

Newtowngore Engineering U 17 – There is a shortage of players at this age group and considering we have three clubs involved at underage it is alarming to see only 14 players in Fenagh on Saturday. These young men played their hearts out, but Fenagh was the stronger team and ran out comfortable winners. The team was S Moran, F Cassells,  L Ellis, C Quinn, J Murphy, C Keegan, N McNabola, S Bohan, B Donohue, C Macklin, D McCrann, C Wauhua, sub C Mulligan. Next Saturday we play St Mary’s in Mohill

Ladies – Nice to see the ladies winning their first game against Manorhamilton in heavy underfoot conditions at Bee Park.
