The Geevagh ladies failed in their attempt to make it three senior championships in a row when they lost to out to St Nathy’s in an absolutely absorbing final played in Markievicz Park on Saturday evening last. Geevagh went in to an early lead and were well in contention as the game entered its final quarter. The south Sligo club however was determined to retain the title they last held in 2013 and finished stronger to earn a memorable and well deserved victory. The Geevagh girls as always performed heroically and gave their loyal followers lots to be proud about. Many thanks to Captain Nicola Brehony and her team as well as manager David Gaffney and selector Sean Breheny for the manner in which they have represented the club in victory and defeat throughout the season.

Attention now turns to David O’Reilly and his team as they prepare for the Intermediate Championship final with St Malaise Gaels in a couple of weeks’ time. Going in as underdogs, our lads will need all the support we can muster as they attempt to make an early return to the senior grade.

The club appreciates all the flags and bunting which currently adorns the parish. Reaching the adult final is a cause for celebration and all our players are grateful for this acknowledgement of their efforts.
