Club Notes – Naomh Adhamhnáin – 17.10.11
Congratulations to the Minor Boys Footballers on winning the Co. Final with a superb display against Ardara in Donegal Town on Sunday. They created history by completing a Football and Hurling Minor double, with many players picking up both medals. Congratulations too to Noel Keaveny and Barry Meehan who put so much into their preparations for the Minors this year. They will both now go on to represent Donegal in Ulster. The Minor hurlers are in action this Sunday (Oct. 23rd) against Dungannon in Ballinascreen with a 1pm throw-in in their first round Ulster clash.
The Seniors and Reserves had no game last week. The Seniors are free once again this week while the Reserves travel to Dungloe in the League on Sunday (23rd) with a 3pm throw-in.
The Juniors suffered a home defeat to Naomh Conaill in the league on Saturday evening and will need to improve as they take on holders, MacCumhaills this Saturday at 5pm in their Championship quarter-final with the venue to be confirmed.

Contact Paul McGovern or Dermot Higgins for details.
