Double Joy in Ballinamore
The Junior team put in great performance in Ballinamore when they defeated a very good Mohill team by three points to win the Junior A Championship final.

This was a very entertaining game for any neutral. The result was in doubt up to the last minute. The Gaels showed great character to come back from six points down in the first quarter.

It was a good sporting game played in near perfect conditions on a great surface.

Congratulations to each and every one of the players on the Junior panel who worked so hard to win this Junior championship.

Well done also to the mentors Peter, Dessie and John.

Thanks to Michelle Brennan who did such a great job looking after any injuries at the Junior Final on Sunday and also at the Intermediate Final the previous Saturday.

The Club would like to also thank the large numbers who travelled again to Ballinamore to support the lads.

There was another great welcome for the team when they arrived back in the village on Sunday evening.

Thanks also to Gordon McGowan for taking photographs at the game.

Back to the League on Sunday
It’s back to the Senior League on Sunday when the first team travel to Glenfarne/Kiltyclogher on Sunday for Round 10 of the League.

Throw in for this game is 2pm.

Good luck to all the lads.
