It was a big week for Arianna Bonner, Nicola McDyre & Elllie McDonald as all three were part of their respective age groups for their school St Columbas, Glenties in Ulster finals.
Firstly last Tuesday in Garvaghey centre,Tyrone Nicola & Ellie played in the U16s final against St, Clare’s of Cavan and on the day proved far to strong running out easy winners as the girls lifted their first medals of the week. They can now look forward to an All Ireland semi final which will take place in the coming weeks.
On Friday last Arianna along with Nicola & Ellie travelled to Garvaghey centre again to play in the Schools senior final against St Dominic’s of Belfast. Very difficult conditions on the day as the Glenties scholars played against the breeze in the first half and went into the break losing by 17 points. A terrific second half comeback wasn’t enough though as time ran out and Dominicks lifted the title.
Well done girls on your achievements last week. From all at the club.
Congratulations also to one of our under age coaches Mikaela Bonner on her terrific achievement of reaching number 1 in the Irish iTunes Charts last weekend. Well done from all concerned at the club.
Best wishes to former senior team Goalkeeper Jamesy Melly as he recovers from his recent spell in hospital. From all at the club.
