It was a wet and wild day on Sunday last in Ardara for our Ladies team in their very first game of the season, With Great support as always for the Naomh Columba ladies, It was an exciting game despite the wet underfoot conditions, the game finished a draw with our Girls putting on a fantastic team performance despite the horrendous weather conditions to push for the draw in the dying minutes. The final Score was 2-5 to 1-8.
As they say there is no rest for the wicked and our Ladies team are back in action on Good Friday Morning in the Preliminary round of the Gealtacht at home to Dungloe, Throw in is at 11am in Pairc na Geal, This is the ladies first home game of the season so come on out and show your support for them & Lets hope its a Great Friday for Danny and the Ladies.

Last Friday evening There was a 5k organised by the Minor Boards of Clg Naomh Columba and Cill Chartha to raise money and show our support for our Colaiste na Carraige lads who were in action on Saturday in Mullingar in the All Ireland Semi Final, A huge thank you to everybody that donated Money, Ran, Walked & Rolled the tough course, It was a joy to do on such a glorious evening and great to see such a good turn out of young and old from both parishes.
Unfortunately the Colaiste na Carraige lads bid for All Ireland Glory ended on Saturday evening in the Battle of Mullingar, In windy playing conditions our lads battled hard all the way into Injury time and lost by one point in the end. A huge Crowd from the area attended the game and thank you all for doing so. To finish the school season as County champions, Ulster Champions & one of the Top four schools teams Ireland is a remarkable achievement for such a small school, you are all a credit to your School, teachers, and Families who are all very proud of your achievements.
