Under 14 Final
No joy for the Under 14s in the Final last Friday. It was a great achievement by this very young team to reach the Final. Well done to all concerned.
Junior Championship
The Juniors had a great win in Pairc Sean last Saturday evening against Bornacoola. Against all the odds, they produced a great team performance to win by nine points.
At half time they looked out of the championship, when they went in a point down. In the second half they played some great football and scored some great points to win comfortably in the end. Well done to all.
Relegation Game
On Sunday the Seniors take on Drumreilly at 5.30pm in Drumshanbo in a relegation game. Good luck to all involved.

The Club extends sympathy to the Mulligan Family on the death of Grace’s mother, Annie Coyle, in Falcarragh, Co Donegal.
May She Rest In Peace.

A Terrible Tragedy
Apr 19th
The shock and sadness felt by the Club and the wider Kinlough Community when the news came through of the sad and tragic death of Philly McGuinness, is nearly impossible to describe.
Philly was an excellent footballer for club and county and will be sadly missed by all who knew and played with him.
Melvin Gaels players are distraught and deeply distressed by what happened on Saturday evening.
The Club and everyone involved with it would like to extend sincere sympathy to his mother, all his family, relatives and his many friends.

Speedy Recovery Lads
Terrible injuries over the last two weeks have resulted in Melvin Gaels and Leitrim losing two of their best players in Colin Regan and Emyln Mulligan.
Over a long number of years Colin has served Melvin Gaels and Leitrim excellently.
Emyln has been an outstanding player over the last few years for both Club and County as well.
Both these players have shown great commitment and dedication to the Club and the County and we want to see them back as soon as possible.
The Club would like to wish both players a speedy recovery.
