Both teams were in action in the their championships this weekend. The senior team was up first playing Burt on Saturday evening at home. The two teams were neck and neck until an Aidan Duddy goal late in the first half gave the home side the lead, they added another point to their tally and went in 1-4 to 0-4 at half time.

Burt came storming back in the second half kicking four unanswered points and regaining the lead, unfortunatly the lads were playing catch up from then on and ended up just losing out to the margin of 1-7 to 1-11, the second leg's details will be announced during the week and the senior team will be defiantly gunned up for it.

The reserves had another good win at the weekend beating Fanad Gaels by eight points, 2-8 to 4-10, to consolidate thier posision at the top of the reserve league. The seniors, however, went down for the third week in a row losing out to the Gaels by five points, 3-6 to 1-7. This means they are very dependant on other results to have any chance of being in the promotion dogfight. Both these sides have no game next weekend. The third team game was once again cancelled atthe last minute. Next week they are supposed to play Pettigo. The ladies long awaited senior final against Termon has been fixed for Sunday, September 12.

Our U-10 footballers went to Fanad Gaels on Saturday to take part in the Eoghan Gilmore Memorial Shield. The lads got off to a slow start and unfortunately didn't qualify for the semi-finals.

Special thanks goes to the Fanad Gaels club on a very well run and enjoyable tournament.

Commiseration to the Reserves who exited the championship last weekend when Four Masters proved too strong for John McBrearty’s men. The seniors also suffered a home defeat to Dungloe. This Sunday’s clash away to Glenswilly (3pm) is vital in the side’s attempts to starve off relegation fears and two points would be most welcome.

In the Division 1 minor semi final Adrian Brennan’s young guns were well beaten by a strong Kilcar side. The boys put up a great first half fight to exit at the break level – but found the going much tougher in the second half. Anyone interested in putting their names in for the club’s All-Ireland final ticket draw should contact Mary Kelly on 087-6878614 before Monday September 13.
