Meath Senior Football Championship: Our Senior Men play Dunshaughlin in Relegation Play-Off of the Fairyhouse Steel Senior Football Championship in Skryne at 8pm next Friday. A win will keep ensure Senior Football for 2022 and the lads will be looking to put some disappointing results behind them. Entry is by ticket only so make sure you get yours early.

Meath LGFA Championship: Next Sunday morning, our Senior Ladies go in search of a place in the knockout stages of the Kepak Senior Championship when they play Royal Gaels at 11am in Dunshaughlin. The girls have a win aginst Boardsmill and draw against Simonstown to their name so far and know avoiding defeat will see them through to the last four.

Our Junior C Ladies played away to Na Fianna yesterday and were unfortunate to come away on the wrong side of a 2-11 to 1-10 scoreline.

Premier Championship: On Thursday, our Junior team kick off the busy weekend of action when they play Donaghmore/Ashbourne in the Relegation Play-Off of the Premier Division 1 Championship. Like the Senior Men, a win is needed to secure survival in this division for next season. The game in Ashbourne on Thursday evening has an 8pm start time.

On Saturday afternoon, the Division 4 team host Clann na nGael in the semi-final of that Championship. The lads will be looking for revenge for their 4 point defeat in Round 1, where they fell short by four points in Athboy. A repeat of the outcome from the 1st round clash in 2020 is what the lads will be hoping for, when Seneschlastown defeated the Athboy men on home soil.

Minor Boys: Our Minor Boys play Duleek/Bellewstown at home in the final round of the LMFM Minor Football Championship Division 2A next Saturday at 1:00pm. It’s a must win game if they wish to qualify for the semi finals and hope score difference goes their way from the other match.

U15 Boys: Hard luck to our Under 15 boys who lost to Navan O’Mahony’s in the Under 15 Paddy O’Brien Cup (Division 1 Championship) on Sunday morning 1-09 to 1-08. The lads will be hoping to get back to winning ways at home to St. Peter’s Dunboyne on. Wednesday night at 7:00pm.

U7 Boys: Well done to our U7 Boys who played Walterstown on Saturday morning.

U6 Nursey: Our U6 Nursery team played their first ever game of football on Friday evening against Skryne. All of the players really enjoyed the match, getting the chance to show off all their skills learned throughout the year. Hopefully this is the start of a long, enjoyable footballing career in the club colours for these children.
