Both our senior men’s teams suffered defeats at home in the final rounds of their respective league campaigns. Despite leading at half time, our senior men were unable to sustain a second-half goal fest from Coolera/Strandhill eventually losing by 4-11 to 0-09. The final score line belies the performance from the team as they prepare for the Intermediate Championship and their first game against Geevagh on Saturday week in Kent Park. Congratulations to Coolera/Strandhill who now contest the league final next weekend.
