The Late Peter Feeley
There was shock and sadness in the Club and in the wider Community at the news of the sad and sudden death of Peter Feeley, Moniengaugagh, Glenade.
Peter was a very popular player with the Gaels before going off to work in England. He was always a great supporter of Melvin Gaels and of Leitrim down the years. He was there to celebrate on October the 4th, 1998 when the Gaels beat hot favourites Sean O’Heslins to win the Senior Final. Last year, fourteen years later, almost to the day, October the 7th, Peter was back again in Pairc Sean, to see his beloved Gaels beat four in a row winners Glencar/Manorhamilton to win the Senior Final again. This time Peter was even more delighted because his nephew, Stephen Clancy, played a great game for the Gaels. He was a proud man at the final whistle and his broad smile said it all.
Deepest Sympathy is extended to his sister, Mary Clancy, brothers, Con, Pat and Martin and all his many relatives and many friends.
May He Rest in Peace.

The Club would like to wish good luck to all the Leitrim Team and management in the game in New York at the weekend.

Senior League
The Senior League got under way in Melvin Park on Sunday when the Gaels took on Dromahair in the first Senior League game of 2013.
Despite a number of players missing through injury, the Gaels played some great football in the first half of the game, and went into the break two points ahead. In the second half with the wind behind them the Gaels failed to match the first half performance and missed a number of scoring chances, hitting the crossbar in the process. Credit to Dromahaire they made better use of the chances they had and finished a point ahead. Thanks to the Dromahaire team for applauding the Melvin Gaels team on to the pitch in recognition of winning the Senior Championship in 2012.
Next up for the seniors is a home game against Glencar/Manorhamilton on Sunday next.
