Eoghan Rua Cill Chua Notes W/E 14th August
Eoghan Rua Cill Chua CLG are delighted to learn of the appointment of our own Conor Laverty as Down senior football manager. It’s a wonderful honour to lead your county as manager and nothing more than Conor deserves. We wish him and his backroom team all the best in the role. #AnDunAbu
Good luck to our senior footballers, management and backroom team who take on Burren in the league final on Wednesday evening in Mayobridge at 7pm. Tickets to be bought via the my ticket App.
We wish our player Ryan Greenan a speedy recovery after falling ill in the warm up of Friday pasts league game against Mayobridge. We thank the bridge for donating the gate receipts to the Kevin Bell charity, a fantastic gesture. This game was due to be replayed on Monday evening.
Congrats to our Senior Camogie team and their management who were crowned Division 2A league champions. The work this group are putting in is superb, their dedication and commitment this year to date has been brilliant and this title is fully deserved. Well done to everyone involved. They defeated East Belfast last Week to confirm their league win and in doing so scored a mighty 8 goals and ten points.
