GIRLS’ INDOOR FOOTBALL HEAT 6: Omagh Stn Centre
Allianz Cumann na mBunscol Thír Eoghain held the sixth of 9 heats of the annual 5-a-side Girls’ Indoor Gaelic Football for primary schools today in Station Centre Omagh. A total of 5 local schools competed for the honour of winning this heat and, with it, a coveted place in the Tyrone County Final. The format of the day’s play saw the all teams playing each other once with the top two progressing to the final.
St. Patrick's Eskra, All Saints' Tattysallagh, St. Teresa's Loughmacrory, St. Joseph's Drumquin and St. Patrick's Newtownstewart all provided a morning of skills, courage and drama. After a tense ten games of high stakes football, Na Cailini from Loughmacrory and Newtownstewart met in the final. The girls for the Lough shore proved too strong and claimed their place in the Co. final.
Our thanks to referee Sean McCartan for his expert officiating, and to Allianz Cumann na mBunscol officer Damian Kelly for co-ordinating the day’s matches.
