Intermediate Reserve.
Our Intermediate Reserve Team recorded a win over Na Dunaibh in Division 3 of the All County League on Saturday at Trialough. This was good preparation for the side as they get ready for a meeting with Cloughaneely in the championship final. Final score Gaeil Fhánada 3-13 Na Dunaibh 3-07.
The club would like to wish our Reserve Team good luck as they strive to win the Intermediate Reserve Championship. At the time of going to press a time or date had not been agreed for the fixture.
A big thank you to Marine Harvest for their sponsorship in the lead up to the final.

Boys Under 13.
Our under 13 boys were unlucky in their Shield Final, played in Convoy on Friday evening. Played in perfect conditions, under lights, the boys were beaten by four points. Having trailed by 10 points with ten minutes to go our boys mounted a brilliant and valiant comeback to reduce the margin. The young boys can be very proud of their efforts with Callum McAteer, Brian Gallagher and Ciaran Sweeney very impressive, among others. With a number of these boys still eligible to play at this age group next year, they can look forward to a very promising future.
Fanad team: Brian Gallagher, Ciaran Sweeney, Gerard Sweeney, Aaron McConagley, Conor McGarvey, Calum McAteer, Liam McGrenaghan, Conor Heraghty, Hugh Rogers, Darren McAteer, Michael Gibbons, Cian Sweeney, Shaun Carr, James McAteer, Brandon Friel, Shaun McDevitt, Caolan Gibbons and Cian Friel.
Well done boys. The club are very proud of your efforts!

All Ireland Club Draw
In the coming weeks, members of Gaeil Fhánada will go house to house in the club area, selling tickets for the National Club Draw. One ticket gives you entry to three different draws with many prizes on offer locally, within the county and nationally. Members of our club were very lucky in last year’s draw with two members winning substantial prizes at county level.
All proceeds of the draw collected locally will be used for the benefit of the club through coaching and development.
We would urge every member of the club to buy a ticket. If any club member would like to help out with selling tickets in our own area, please attend a short meeting on Thursday night, in Fanad Lodge at 9 p.m.
