Championship
Reserve game called off as Carndonagh were unable to field.
Gaeil Fhánada 3:13 v Carndonagh 2:07
Our Seniors powered past Carndonagh but ultimately fall short. A superb second half performance from our Seniors ensured a comfortable victory against a dogged Carndonagh side. Results elsewhere mean we are safe in Intermediate for another year but won’t make the knockout stages. County minor Eoghan Carr contributed with 3 goals while there was a spread of scores across the rest of the team in what was an impressive performance.
The concession of two very soft goals may be a cause of concern and is something the Gaels can focus on going forward. With results going against us it means we exit the championship without reaching the quarter finals for the first time in 4 years. However it was another positive performance from the Gaels and scoring 3-13 is always a sign of intent. Fanad can now focus on the league in an aim to guarantee Division 3 football for 2017. Fanad can also take heart with the number of goalscoring chances they created, 9 over the hour in what was a fine display of counter attacking play.
Foireann Gaeil Fhánada: Brendan Friel, Kevin McGonigle, Paddy Heraghty, Frank Sweeney, Odhran Shiels, Cathal Martin, Ryan McGonigle (0-2), Shaun McElwaine (0-1), Michael Sweeney (0-1), Oisin Shiels, Seami Nanny Friel (0-3), Brian McVeigh (0-2), Eoghan Carr (3-0), Seimi Coshia Friel (0-1), Niall Carr (0-3).

Senior Ladies
Gleann tSúilí 3:07 Gaeil Fhánada 3:05.
Our Senior Ladies were narrowly defeated by Glenswilly. The senior ladies suffered defeat by two points in Glenswilly in their final League game of the season. On reflection, it will be a game in which the ladies will rue missed opportunities as their wide count was considerably higher than the oppositions at the end. Glenswilly will now go forward to play Naomh Mhuire in the league final while the attention of the Fanad management will turn to the Shield Final, also against Naomh Mhuire.
Foireann: Rosheen Mc Ginley, Eimear Mc Conigley, Orla Sweeney, Róisín Carr, Niamh Mc Devitt, Maggie Friel, Maríosa Friel, Aoife Mc Devitt, Rachel Sweeney (0:01), Orlaigh Carr, Hannah Shiels (0:02), Shauna Howe, Lauren Carr, Michelle Doherty (3:02), Caoimhe Walsh. Deirdre Friel for Aoife Mc Devitt.
Minor boys make it three from three with win over Termon
Gaeil Fhánada 0:18 v An Tearmainn 1:11
Our minors completed their championship group with a good victory over Termon at the Burn Road this evening. The lads overcame a tough challenge away to Malin last week and this victory along with an earlier one against Letterkenny Gaels means they topped their group with maximum points.
Foireann: Oran Blaney, Bernard Martin, James Gallagher, Matthew Gallagher, Fergus Friel, Odhrán Shiels, Dan Little, Michael Shiels, Oisín Mc Fadden (0:01), Bernard Mc Gettigan (0:02) Paddy Carr (0:01) Sean Little (0:02) Darren Mc Elwaine, Eoghan Carr (0:12) Niall Shiels.
