Donegal Hurling League Game:
Unfortunately the Hurlers opened their league campaign with a defeat away to Mayo. The lads really put in a fightback but just fell short in the end on a score line of 1.14 to 0.13. Ciaran Matthewson notched up 5 points and Lee Henderson (0.01) and Paddy Hannigan were our other representatives.
Under-16 Presentations:
The club is holding presentations for the Under-16 Hurlers, Footballers and Camogie players who had success last season. The presentation will take place at the club house on Friday night with an 8.30pm start. We’d encourage as many parents to attend.

The club are holding a registration night on Friday the 19th of February from 7.30pm to 9.00pm. Club membership forms for Juvenile, Adult and Family are also available from all club coaches/managers and to download from our website (www.seanmaccumhaill.com). The rates are as follows: Juvenile/student is €20, Adult is €30 and family membership is €80 (2 adults and 2 plus children). Registration is extremely important and non-registration will result in your child not being insured and unable to train or play for the club so please register them. New players are more than welcome. The club will also hold additional registration nights to ensure compliance.
Bingo:
The Bingo takes place in Jackson’s Hotel on Sunday night with an 8.30pm start for the next 2 weeks. The Snowball jackpot is €9,000 for 45 numbers or less. All are very welcome.
Lotto Results:
There was no winner of this week’s Lotto. The numbers drawn were 7, 15, 21 and 22. There were 3 match three winners: Mary Doherty c/o Alan Martin, Dylan & Clara Dunnion, Patricia Gallagher, Letterkenny who all receive €50. This week’s jackpot is a massive €9,000 and Shane McNulty’s team is selling. The club are asking for people to help out by selling lotto’s. This would involve helping to sell 1 week out of every 7 or 8 depending on the amount of teams formed. This is an important source of funding for the club and a great way to help get involved with your club. All help available would be greatly appreciated. If interested please contact Terry O’Reilly on 086 609 5347.
