Our U-21 side saw their championship tie with Calry/St Joseph’s postponed at the weekend. Details of the refixture will be made available in due course. 

Membership

As the new season gets underway, membership is now overdue. Thanks to all who registered over the course of two registrations nights in Quigabar. If you or your child has yet to sign up for the new year, please do so at the earliest opportunity by contacting the relevant team manager for details. All players must be registered for insurance purposes.

School success

Congratulations

The club sends its best wishes to Tom Tuffy, formerly of Culleens, who was chosen as one of the Aides to the Grand Marshal in the New York St Patrick’s Day Parade. Congratulations too to Desmond Beglin, also of Culleens, who is the Guest of Honour at this weekend’s county Sligo Social and Benevolent Association. 

The club also sends its congratulations to Castleconnor native Micheál Naughton on his election as the LGFA’s new President.
