This Week’s Colmcille GFC Club Notes
Match Results:
Hard luck to our U21 team who missed out on a win in the first round of the U21 A Football Championship last Friday night in Ballymahon. The lads played out a hard-fought match which ended in an eventual draw with the final score being Ballymahon/Kenagh 1-12 0-15 Colmcille. Well done to all involved against a tough team.
Upcoming Fixtures:
The very best of luck to our U21 team as they play the second round of the U21 A Championship this weekend! The lads will clash with Killoe on Sunday at 2 pm in Fr. McGee Park. Wishing the team and management all the best – let’s get out and show our support for the lads!

Condolences:
Colmcille GFC would like to extend our deepest condolences to the family and relatives of the late PJ Carroll, Cootehill Road, Cavan Town, whose funeral took place last Thursday. PJ, who managed our senior team in 2006, was a respected figure in the GAA community, known for his dedication, sportsmanship, and leadership on and off the field. His impact on our club, and the respect he garnered as a manager, will be long remembered. He will be deeply missed by his wife Anne, his children Olivia, Annemarie, Caroline, and Pauric, along with his grandchildren, extended family, and many friends. Ar dheis Dé go raibh a anam dílis.
