FAMILY FUN DAY
Despite the rain, the club held a very successful and enjoyable Family Fun and Sports Day on Sunday in Hugh O'Reilly Park. There were plenty of activities and amusements on show, as well as Bonny Baby, Dog Show and Races. Well done to Cootehill who were winners of the Under 12 Tournament while the Lads (Young and Old) versus Lassies drew a great crowd. Thanks to all who called in and especially to the many who helped organise the event. Check out all our photos on our website.

MINORS
The Eire Og Celtic Minor secured a fantastic quarter final victory over Ramor United/Killinkere yesterday (Monday) evening in the Division One Minor Championship. Despite trailing by three points at half time, an amazing second half saw the youngsters outscore their opponents 3-7 to 0-2 to see them through to a semi-final encounter with the winners of O'Raghallaigh Gaels and St. Joseph's.
