It was a good weekend for the Seniors and Reserves with both teams getting two wins over the Easter weekend.
The Seniors had to come from behind victory on Friday over Gaoth Dobhair and then on Sunday they travelled to the Glen and despite finishing with 13 men, a young team showed a lot of character in a very intimidating atmosphere to run out winners by 3-13 to 1-07.
Rory Kavanagh gave a towering display despite the sad passing of his beloved grandmother earlier in the week.
The Reserves continued their good start as well with a good win over the Gaoth Dobhair men on Friday before winning by the minimum in the Glen on Sunday.
The Senior Hurlers claimed another good victory in the Ulster Táin League Div. 3 against Aodh Ruadh on Easter Monday and they take on MacCumhaills this Saturday in Ballybofey.
The Juniors began their Div. 5 league season with a good win over Ardara after a strong finish to the game. They host MacCumhaills this Saturday evening with a 7pm throw-in.
The Senior Ladies get their league campaign underway with an away game against newly promoted Milford this Wednesday (23rd). All support welcome (7pm throw-in).
The Minor Boys footballers defeated Letterkenny Gaels on Monday night in the Northern League q-finals and travel to Burt on Wednesday evening for their semi-final.
The U14 Boys Northern League q-finals are set for this week with the B team at home to Gaels with a 5:15pm throw-in on Friday. The A team are also at home to Carndonagh and it looks like this game may be moved to Monday evening – keep an eye on social media for updates.
The U14 girls began their league campaign on Tuesday night away to Glenswilly and had a good victory. Training is in the park on Thursday at 4.45pm to 6pm. They are at home to Milford next Tuesday (April 29th) throw-in at 6:15pm.

The Minor Hurlers have a home game to Aodh Ruadh this Thursday. An understrength St Eunan’s U14 Hurling team lost out last week in the league to Buncrana however a second half where Eunan’s scored 5-05 shows the potential in this squad. The U14 hurlers are away to Burt this Thursday.
