Mourne
Minors prepare for Orchard Meeting - 29/05/2003
Ulster Minor Football Championship: Down
v Armagh Sun 08/06/2003
Both Down and Armagh minor teams have
been preparing for this local derby clash for some time.
Ger Houlihan's side already have one game in the Ulster
Championship under their belt when they defeated Monaghan
with an injury time point. The first win for the Orchard
county at this level for nine years.
Armagh are a strong side and defeated
down in April on the way to lifting the Ulster Minor League.
This was Down's only defeat in the competition. However
their next meeting will be a much tougher match at Casement
Park, as the Mourne side managed by former Down All-Ireland
star, Ross Carr has been training and preparing his side
for this game, and with the added impetus of a 'local
derby' clash this tie could go either way on the day.
