0League Game v Drumreilly
The seniors secured a win in the first League game when they overcame Drumreily on Sunday in Melvin Park. The Gaels controlled the game and were deserving winners.
Drumreilly got off to a flying start with a goal in the opening minutes, but the Gaels soon took control a finished the half strongly and went four points ahead. Two goals from James Bredin in the second half gave the Gaels a comfortable win in the end.
There is plenty of room for improvement, but its important to get off to a winning start so well done to all concerned.
