Eurotech JFL With the Packie Boylan cup now secured we now attempt to reach the semi – final of the league. We play Oram this Saturday evening at 5pm in Drumhowan and follow up with the last league game season the following Saturday with another home game this team to Aghabog. We must win both games and hope Toome lose  one of theirs.
 

Floodlight blitz – Our under 13 side are in action in Cloghan on Thursday 9th October at 7-30pm. Our under 15 side are out the following Thursday night also in Cloghan.

Under 10 – We had our final Go Games Blitz of the season on Saturday last. We had two games against Donaghmoyne and another against Maghercloone. The team played really well in all three games and finished the season on a positive note. Well done all players and mentors. With most of this group still underage next season it augers well for the future.

Under 8. This side had the honour of playing at half time in the Junior Final on Sunday last. They kept the large crowd entertained at half time and showed off their skills.

Under 6&8. We have been invited to a tournament in Cootehill on this Saturday for games at both Under 6 and Under 8 level. We will be competing against the hosts along with Knockbride and Drung. Our under 6 side will also have games and hopefully a few more players will make their debut in the blue and gold. All players should be at Ballybay Community College at 10-10 am on Saturday to get the bus. We should be back around 1pm.
