The senior footballers had a great win over Milltown in the league last Sunday morning coming from 8 points down at half time to record a 3-11 to 4-6 win. Next up is Killannin the week after next at home in our final league game. A win should put us into the Division 1 league final.

Ladies Football
Ladies football AGM will take place upstairs in the Arus on Tuesday November 13th at 7.30pm.
We would ask each outgoing ladies football manager to attend and to bring at lease one or two members of their coaching staff.
Would you forward this email to all members of your individual groups and have an updated list of all people involved for the year ahead.
Please rsvp to Mike Tarpey (mtarps7@gmail.com)
Could each manager come up with suggestions as to how we could improve ladies football within the club and also maybe share something that has worked well within your group.
Most of the committee positions have been filled already.
We would encourage parents to attend, particularly the ladies.
Looking forward to seeing you there.
