Club Notes – Naomh Adhamhnáin – 02.12.13
In Association with Letterkenny Shopping Centre
The U21 Hurlers were denied the opportunity to play the county final last week due to exams and hopefully common sense can prevail and the final played on another date. It’s a shame that they had to wait 7 weeks from their semi-final for this to happen.
Comhghairdeas leis an grúpa bailéad a bhain craobh na contae i Scór na nÓg i nGleann t-Súilí ag an deireadh seachtaine. B’iad seo a leanas an ghrúpa. Amy Ní Chléirigh, Jessica Nic an Bhreitheamhán Ní Ghallchóir, Laoise Ní Riaghain, Grace Ní Chunchúir, Gráinne Ní Dhomhnaill agus bhí siad faoi stiúr Sinéad Ní Dhomhnaill. The céilí dancers under the direction of Mary Maguire and Finola Ferry gave an excellent performance and lost out by the narrowest of margins to Malin on the night. In the recitation section Niall Hannigan gave a tremendous performance and also lost out by the narrowest of margins to the eventual winner from Gaoth Dobhair. In the ceol uirlise section, our musicians also achieved a second place and the club was also represented in the county final in the Tráth na gCeist section. Bhí na hiomaitheoirí uilig as an chlub tharr barr agus tá an chuid is mó acu faoi aois ar an bhliain seo chugainn arís. Go néirigh leis an ghrúpa bailéad i mbabhta leath cheannais Uladh nuair a bheidh siad i néidean buaiteoirí Dhoire agus Fear Manach.
