Naomh Columba 11.09.2012
We start this week by thanking each and every person who made our charity cycle on Sunday such a resounding success, from the moment we pulled out of the Diamond, until the quiz winners were announced in the Glen Head Tavern that night.
The support received was unbelievable, and preliminary figures indicate that we have collected well in excess of €10,000 for Temple Street Children’s Hospital. A formal thank you will be issued at a later date, when all monies are in and we have a final figure.
The following items have been handed into the club: a pair of grey shoes, left behind on the Diamond, and a black & turquoise coloured jacket, with sunglasses and armband in the pocket, left on a fencing post in the Bruckless area.
If you own either item, or know who does, please contact any member of the club committee. Go raibh míle maith agaibh.
In football news, well done to Odi Mc Bride and our third team, who overcame St Eunans in the second leg of the Junior Championship B opener in Letterkenny last Saturday. In underage news, Friday was a mixture of joy and disappointment for our teams. Well done to Kieran, Kevin and the minor lads, who have progressed to the Division 2 regional championship final, after defeating Naomh Bríd on a scoreline of 1.15 to 1.05.
At the time of going to press we are awaiting details of the final. Commiserations to Gabriel, Andrew and all the under 14 team, who narrowly missed out on a county final spot after a fantastic season, losing out to Fanad Gaels by a single point in Glenties. Our under 13 team will be in action at home this Friday evening, where they host Na Cealla Beaga at 6.30pm. The Coláiste na Carraige teams are back in training for the new school season, and we wish Gareth, Paddy, Noel, Damien, Neilly and the lads the best of luck, and we look forward to following their exploits around the county in the coming months. Tá duaischiste de €5500 anois againn sa lotto, de bharr nach raibh buaiteoir ann le linn na seachtaine seo caite. 9 15 16 29 na huimhreacha a tairgníodh amach.
