MINORS
The O’Raghallaigh Gaels minors got their Ulster Club Championship campaign of to a winning start at the weekend with a 0-13 to 0-4 victory over Erne Gaels (Fermanagh) in the Quarter Finals on Saturday. Played in dreadful conditions the lads had to battle the elements as well as the opposition but ground out a well-deserved win by the final whistle.
They are now through to the Semi Final where they will play either Truagh Gaels (Monaghan), Watty Grahams (Derry) or St. Eunans (Donegal) on St. Stephen’s Day at 1.30pm up in St. Paul’s GAC in Belfast (Host Club). Thanks to the large crowd of supporters who made their way to the match. It’s likely a bus will be arranged again for the semi-final so watch this space.
