Letterkenny Gaels club notes
November 07, 2018
The Minor Girls Footballers won a thrilling County Championship Final against 6-in-a-row seeking Moville on Saturday in MacCumhaill Park. On a blustery day they played with the elements in their favour and led by 6-06 to 2-00 at half-time, but Moville showed why they had won the previous 5 titles with a gutsy comeback that fell short as the girls held on to win by 7-09 to 7-04. Claire Doherty (2), Meabh McEniff (2), Laura Crossan, Niamh Walsh and Laoise Ryan got the goals. Well done to players and management. The girls host Bredagh (Down) this Sunday at 2pm in the Ulster club q-final. All support welcome.
The U21 Footballers got off to a slow start in their Championship semi-final against Killybegs in Donegal Town and trailed by 4 points at half-time but a blistering start to the second half set them up to coast home with Niall O’Donnell grabbing both goals in a 2-16 to 1-10 win. The lads will take on N. Conaill or Glenfin in the Final with their game being played this weekend.
The U21 hurlers will take on Burt this Saturday in the Championship at 2pm with venue still to be decided.
The Minor boys’ footballers will host Buncrana this Sunday at 11:30am in their Co, League quarter-final. They have been drawn to play Errigal Ciaran in the Ulster Club quarter-final with date and time tbc.
