The club is in the midst of Foyle Cup action and the opening two days was in the main a very good one for the club. 

The u9s won their opening three games against Portrush, Foyle Harps and Carn and were due to complete their group on Wednesday before classification games commence on Thursday.

The u10s defeated Oliver Plunkett Juniors 2-0 but performed admirably when going down narrowly against Larne and Magherafelt and they were also due in action twice on Wednesday.
The u14s began well when a brace from Sean McVeigh secured a 2-1 win against Hillsborough Boys and they were due to play Derry Colts and Tampa while the 17s won 5-1 against Bertie Peacocks with goals from Anthony Grant(2), Ethan Coll, Jordan Gallagher and Conor O’Donnell and they go into the final group game with everything to play for against Everton America. The 17s had lost their opening game against Inishowen 4-1 with Ryan O’Donnell netting.
The seniors are now back in pre season and also defeated Castlefin Celtic 4-0 in the Lifford Summer Cup with goals from Pajo Rafferty(2), Steve Okakpo-Emeka and Conor Tourish and play their quarter final next Wednesday ( July 26th) against Fir Trees with a 730pm kickoff.
Mini Lotto numbers drawn this week were 7-9-11 and 13 and 5  winners were drawn from 12 who had matched three numbers.. The lucky winners were Mairead McLaughlin, Neil McManus, May Doherty, Joe Duffy and Hugh Kelly. Next weeks jackpot is  a whopping €5000.
Club Bingo continues in the Station House Hotel on Thursdays at 830pm sharp. Snowball is €2325 on 45 numbers or less. All support appreciated,
