Hard luck to our U13Ds who despite a brilliant display of footballing came up just short to Ballina in the County Final.

There are many bright days ahead for this talented bunch of lads.

It was all back to the Resource Centre after the match for some well deserved chips, pizza, sausages & chicken.
