Our senior team’s National League Predictor fundraiser continues this weekend with Gameweek 2 now in full swing! Week 1 was eventful, with some postponements and new rules to navigate, but we’re delighted to announce our first winner. Congratulations to Vincent Hourican, who claimed the €100 prize with an impressive score of 62 points. Please note that due to the postponements, the affected games were not included in the Week 1 scores and will not be counted retrospectively to ensure fairness for all participants. The Top 10 leaderboard is available on our website and social media pages. All participants should have received an email with their scores—please check your spam folder if it hasn’t arrived. For those who entered manually and want to know their scores, please contact Philip on 087 235 5766. Be sure to get your predictions in for the second round of National Football League games through the link online or by contacting any senior player.
Well done to Longford, who earned a hard-fought point against Limerick on Sunday last in Glennon Bros Pearse Park. It was a thrilling opening game in the National League, showcasing great determination from the team. The focus now turns to this weekend as Longford travel to Clonmel to face Tipperary on Saturday at 2:30 PM. Best wishes to the team and, in particular, to Cathal McCabe, Ruairi Harkin, and Jack Macken.
