Our Set Dancing team were successful in
Saturday’s
Scór na nÓg
semi-final and now advance to the
Ulster final, following in the footsteps
of the teams from the last couple of
years. The final will be in Silverbridge,
County Armagh on Saturday 20th
January. Well done Martina Cunningham,
Catherine Walsh, Siobhan Walsh, James
Walsh, Shane Rice, Siobhan McCann,
Derbhla Arkins and Neil Magorrian. We
also hope that the other Down
representatives (Saul’s Ballad Group,
Loughinisland’s Quiz team and
Mayobridge’s Recitation entry) do
themselves justice in the final.
There will be a meeting tonight (Wed) at
9.00pm for all football team managers to
