County final
October 14th
2018: A Super Sunday. The hosting of the Sligo Minor and Senior Championship
finals at Quigabar for the first time since 1987 proved to be a resounding
success on Sunday last, as the club hung out its brightest colours to welcome
the participating teams, GAA President John Horan and the Sligo GAA faithful.
From start to finish the day went off without a hitch thanks to our large band
of stewards – almost 100 high vis vests were dotted around the ground and
surrounds – coordinated by Mixie Jacob, Joe Cawley and Johnny Mullaney. A
sincere thanks to anyone who helped out in any way to cater for the crowd of
approximately 2000, and to our ladies committee who looked after our special
guests and officials with their customary efficiency. Well done also to our
pitch committee who had the playing surface in immaculate condition for both
games. Congratulations to Tourlestrane and St Molaise Gaels on their respective
successes and commiserations to Tubbercurry and Shamrock Gaels. It truly was a
day that will live long in the memory for anyone associated with
Enniscrone/Kilglass.
Minor
Well done
to the Enniscrone-Kilglass/Easkey minor team who captured the A Championship
shield last Wednesday evening with a 3-10 to 1-12 defeat of Curry. Despite
falling well behind in the early stages of the second half, the lads retrieved
the situation with a remarkable comeback late on. Well done to all the players
and management on this success.
U-21
The
Enniscrone-Kilglass/Easkey U-21 footballers are scheduled to get their
championship campaign underway next Sunday at home to Tubbercurry/Cloonacool
from 1pm at Quigabar.
Wedding bells
Best wishes
to Intermediate team footballer Mark Gordon and Annemarie Gaughan who get
married next weekend in Belmullet.
Club lapel pins
There are a
limited number of lapel pins showcasing the club crest – and importantly the
correct spelling of Enniscrone as Gaeilge agus as Béarla – available at
present. They are a quality item that would make a great present, and also show
your support for the upcoming plebiscite on the town name. They are available
from any committee member for €10.
