Cornafean GFC Thank You
Thank you to all club members who helped out on Saturday evening last in Paric Naomh Fionnan to ensure the smooth running of the Cavan Senior Championship Round 1 clash of near neighbours Gowna and Ballinagh. Unfortunately the weather was not kind on a miserable evening but the neighbouring clubs served up a very entertaining game to the large crowd present. Thank you to the visiting supporters for co-operating with the traffic control measures and to all who supported our club's half time draw.

Football Update
Well done to the Senior Reds on their well deserved draw against Ballyhaise in Round 2 of the Intermediate Championship played in Mullahoran on Sunday evening last.

Best of luck to the Reserve Reds who take on Cuchullains in the next round of the Division 2 Championship. Game down for decision in Mullagh on this Wednesday evening 15th August at 7.30. Wishing our Senior ladies all the best on this coming Sunday morning as they take on Drumgoon in the Intermediate B Championship. Game to be played in Cornafean at 12 o'clock.
Recent Deaths,
Sean Reilly Behey who died last week was an only child of the late Josie and Peggy Reilly. He was in his mid sixties and had in failing health for some time. To many of his friends and neighbours he was better know as 'Steptoe'. Sean was a quiet decent person and a good neighbour. He loved sport but his favourite past time was Beagle hunting. His comrades in the hunt club formed a guard of honour at his funeral.
Sincere sympathy is extended to his cousins relatives and friends. His funeral mass was in the church of the Immaculate conception with burial in Coronea cemetery with Rev Dan Sheridan officiating.
The late Robert Murdy.
The death has taken place of Robert Murdy, Derrylane. Born 65 years ago in Gartinardress Cornafean he was a very tidy person who took great pleasure in doing things well. His house and garden was always adorned with flowers.
Sincere sympathy is extended to his family, sons Robert and Malcolm daughters Donna and Sabrina, grandchildren brothers Arthur and Mervyn and his extended family. His funeral was in Ballintemple parish church with Canon Alison Calvin presiding

CLUB NOTES
A fine evening in Mullahoran for round 2 of the IFC. Cornafean were slow to start and let Ballyhaise ahead by 1pt and after 4 wides Andrew Smith pointed following a good run from Brian Sheridan. It was point for point from here on with good team work resulting in points from Andrew, Barry(2), Jason and Liam. Half time score Ballyhaise 8pts to Cornafean 7pts. Cornafean opened the 2nd half with scores from Barry and Daniel Cullivan. Cornafean worked hard all over the field but some hard hits left nothing easy. Ballyhaise went ahead by 2 pts but with Aodhgan Smith in fine form and another free from Barry levelled it again. Ballyhaise saw 2 players red carded and Cornafean missed a lot of scores but luckily a free from Barry levelled the game just before the final whistle. So its shared points for both teams following this outing.
