The late Mark Rooney Glencar Co Leitrim and GlencarManorhamiltonOgAA Club

The late Mark Rooney, Glencar, Co. Leitrim and Glencar/Manorhamilton GAA Club.

Leitrim GAA wishes to express its profound sympathy to the Rooney Family, Glencar, Co Leitrim on the sad and untimely passing of the late Mark Rooney, after a long illness, bravely borne.

Mark played at the very highest level with his club Glencar/Manorhamilton, and won a SFC medal in 1999, while still eligible for Under 21 grade, as the club bridged a 22 year gap from its previous and first ever title recorded in 1977. He also shared in the clubs 2009 triumph as selector/player in the midst of the clubs four-in-a-row series of triumphs.

Mark, a multi talented sportsman, represented Leitrim at all underage grades from Under 16 to Under 21 from 1993 to the end of the millennium and was a most skillful player, in addition to being the ultimate sportsman.

He will be missed by all who were lucky enough to have known him over his all too short 38 years, but mostly by his family. We wish to record our deepest sympathies to his wife Natalie, sons Zach and OScór, mother Dympna, his brother Aidan, sister Rosaleen, brother in law Camillus, sister in law Denise, father and mother in law Tony and Patricia, nephews and nieces Nathan, Eden and Eli, his uncles, aunts, cousins, extended family and many friends.

Ar dheis Dé go raibh sé.

Glencar/Manorhamilton GAA Club Appreciation here

Remains reposing at his home on Monday from 3pm to 9pm and on Tuesday from 3pm to 9pm with removal on Wednesday to St Osnats Church, Glencar, to arrive for 12 noon Funeral Mass with cremation afterwards in Lakelands Crematorium, Cavan.

Leitrim Handball News

Connacht U14 60×30 Title for Leitrim 
 
Cormac Scollan secured his first Connacht 60×30 title with a stunning performance in a top quality final played in Roscommon on Saturday, where he overcame the challenge of Sligos Connor Finn, winning on a score line of 10-15, 15-9, 15-3. In a match that was played at a high tempo with a demonstration of all the skills of handball it was an absorbing game for all the neutrals present. In the first game Connor Finn got off to a strong start with a serve that the Fenagh lad got hard to get to grips with in the early stages and went on to win the game 15-10. The second game was a must win one for Scollan and with a combination of good serving and passing shots, he won some key rallies and took the game 15-9. With the momentum from the second game with him Scollan made maximum use of his dominance and gave a top class display of serve and kill shots and went on to take the game 15-3. On his route to the final he defeated Mayos Lorcan Conlon in the semi-final on a score line of 15-4, 15-13. He is now through to his first All-Ireland semi-final which will be played on October 2nd against Ulster opposition in a Connacht venue.
