ST Eunan’s GAA club news: The Senior footballers suffered another league defeat last Sunday away to Gaoth Dobhair. They have no game this week. The Reserve game was postponed and refixed for Friday, July 4th.
The Junior men had a narrow victory away to Glenfin last week and they are away this Saturday evening to Sean MacCumhaills, throw-in is at 7:30pm.
The Senior Hurlers have two midweek games in the Táin league in the next week, first up is the rescheduled game v Ballela that takes place this Wednesday (18th) in Garvaghey at 8pm. Next Wed. (25th) they make the short journey to play The Shamrocks.
Best of luck to all our players on the Donegal Senior and Minor teams that will attempt to reach the Ulster Final this Sunday in Clones v Antrim. On Sunday evening the Donegal Senior Ladies will also attempt to reach the Ulster Final when they take on Armagh in Lisnaskea at 5pm, Rose Boyle, Kaneshia McKinney and Lauren O’Connell represent us on that squad. You may be able to stop in on the way back from Clones to support the girls.
The National Hurling Féile is on this weekend in O’Donnell Park. 8 Teams from across Ireland will be playing in what will be a truly memorable event. Please come to the park on Saturday from 11am to support our boys, and to witness excellent hurling. The St Eunan’s Féile committee would like to thank everyone who have so generously supported the club in our preparations for the Féile this year. We could not do this without your help and financial support.
The Minor boy’s footballers begin their Championship campaign with an away game v Letterkenny Gaels next Wednesday evening (25th) in the new round robin format with a 7:30pm throw-in.
The U16 Boys footballers get back to league action after a break for the exams next Tuesday (24th). The A team travel to Gaoth Dobhair with the Development team having a bye week.
The U14 Boys footballers bowed out of this year’s championship last week after losing to MacCumhaills. Unfortunately that ends their season. This is something that will have to be looked at as these players are simply not getting enough football over a long enough period in the calendar year.
The U14 girl’s footballers will meet Termon in the Co. Div. 1 semi-final next Tuesday (24th) with neutral venue to be confirmed. Training on Thursday from 4.45pm to 6pm.
The U12 boy’s footballers make the short trip to Glenswilly on Monday evening (24th) for Go Games.
The U9 (born in 2005) Footballers make the short trip to Glenswilly this Saturday morning for Go Games (coaches are Cathal Doherty, Peter Curran, Declan O’Donnell and Bernard Doherty). Players are asked to be in Glenswilly for 10:45am SHARP for 11am start.
Thank you to everyone that helped out and donated to our fundraisers over the weekend.
