The Intermediate Football League resumed last weekend as our Seniors took on neighbours Corduff away from home last Saturday evening. This was a tight encounter throughout played in very windy conditions. Donaghmoyne with the aid of the wind in the first half went in with a comfortable lead at half time, a lead which Corduff just couldn’t overturn in the second half as Donaghmoyne ran out victors with a two point margain, to make it two wins from two in the league so far.

Mouthguards:
Gum Shields have now become compulsory for both training and matches in the season ahead. It’s important all juvenile players and senior players have their mouthguard in place before entering the playing grounds. At Annual Congress in April 2012, a new rule was enacted that made it mandatory to use a mouthguard in all Gaelic football matches and training sessions from January 1st 2013 for all age grades up to and including minor. The rule will now come into effect at Under 21 and Adult level from January 1st 2014. Players will not be covered under the player injury scheme if they are not wearing a mouthguard.
