Latton GAA Club Notes – Week Beginning 19^th August 2013

Senior Football

We played Ballybay in the Senior Championship last Sunday afternoon. In a very tense encounter the County champions emerged victorious with a fortuitous ‘smash & grab’ goal in the dying seconds of the game. Final Score: Ballybay 1-8 Latton 0-9. See full report elsewhere. We have a bye in the next round of the back door and therefore we must wait to face either Doohamlet/Carrick, Blayney/Magheracloone or Rockcorry on the weekend of Friday 6^th September.

We played Carrickmacross at home in the Senior league last night (Wednesday 21^st): Check elsewhere for result.

Our next league fixture is this Friday 23^rd away v Castleblayney at 7.15pm.

All-Ireland Semi-Finals

We wish every success to the Co Minors, under the guidance of Frank Brady, who face Mayo in Croke Park on Sunday August 25^th. The centre will be open for anyone who wants to enjoy watching the semi-finals on the big-screen.

All-Ireland Football Final tickets

Keep Friday 20^th September free as we will hold a raffle in the centre for two sets of All-Ireland Football Final tickets. If you’re not in, you can’t win!
