This is a big day for these Under-12 players with many Monaghan clubs making the trip to play in a county final. Magheracloone will face Truagh at three o’clock and the final will follow the same format as the earlier rounds. The emphasis is on Fun and Respect and all panel members will play for at least one of the three periods of play. All mentors and supporters are asked to remember that the emphasis is on participation and enjoyment for these young people and all are reminded to support these ideals.
