Doohamlet GFC Notes
Intermediate Championship Final: Championship fever has gripped the Doohamlet community as we travel to Clontibret on Sunday next to play our old rivals Tyholland in the 2012 Intermediate Championship Final. Doohamlet have had a long and demanding route to this final as we overcame Sean McDermotts, Inniskeen, Rockcorry and a tense battle against Cremartin in the semi-final.
Thankfully our injuries have cleared but spare a thought for our stalwart No. 4 Shane J. Connolly who will be unable to take his place due to a severe knee injury but no doubt he will wish his fellow teammates all the best on the big day.
Preparations have been intense and thorough and both teams will know each other well having played in the 2010 decider. We wish Team Manager Dessie and his selectors Trevor and David, Team Captain Ted and all the players the very best of luck and let’s hope for a good game of open football and hopefully we can celebrate a famous victory. Throw in at Clontibret 3.45pm
