GLASDRUMMAN GAC NOTES
1 The Seniors continued their
good form of late with a sound
home victory over St. Paul's on
Saturday in their last league
game of the season. It is expected
the first of the promotion play-offs
will take place over the weekend
of 25th & 26th October, please
keep an eye on the press for further
details.
2 The U-14s enjoyed a great evening
in Burren on Friday despite the
heavy rain. They played well against
a strong Burren team and made
a close game of it with a determined
display in the second half with
only a few points in it at the
end of an enjoyable game of football.
Everyone played well, but Barry
Magee in goals, Conor McCartan,
Cathal Rodgers and Colum Murphy
with two goals stood out on the
night. Well done also to Ryan
McKay, Martin McVeigh, Sean Grant,
Ciaran Trimble, Gerard McDowell,
James Cunningham, Connor Cunningham,
Ronan Grant, Richard McAteer,
Conor McKay, Niall Rooney and
Jake Morrison. Thanks to the parents
who turned out on a very wet night
to support the team. Thanks also
to Burren for such a warm welcome
and the fantastic food afterwards.
3 The U-8s also went well in
the Kingdom tournament on Friday
night. They put in a series of
strong performances making it
through to the semi-final where
they unfortunately lost out to
the eventual winners, Longstone.
Well done to Katie Smith, Matthew
Brennan, Caolan O'Hare, Jonathan
McVeigh, Aidan McVeigh, Kerry
Grant, Ronan McGivern, Nathan
