IFC: We lost out away to Carrickmacross in the McElvaney Recycling Intermediate Football Championship last Sunday. Points from Michael Galligan, Neil McAdam and Luke McManus kept us in touch early on, but Carrick put wind advantage to good use as they built up a 1-11 to 0-6 half-time lead. Daragh Croarkin, Dean Doherty and Dylan McKenna added their names to the scoresheet during the second half, but Carrick put the game beyond reach with their second goal. We host Emyvale in our final Group Two game this Sunday at 2pm.

Minors: Our minors got off the mark in the Division One championship with a home win over Carrickmacross last Saturday. Eoin Sheridan and Jack and Mark Lynch were on target early on and although Carrick rallied to take the lead, a goal from Jack had our lads on level terms at half-time: 1-6 to 2-3. A strong second-half performance saw our lads push on for a good win, with Ethan McCaffrey and Eoin finding the net and Orrin Doherty, Oisín Brannigan, Dara Mullin and Kyle Lavery also joining our list of scorers. Next up for the Division One team is a home game against Clontibret on Saturday week, September 21. We wish Josh Cassidy a speedy recovery from his injury.
