Downpatrick RGU Club Notes

The Senior team confirmed their first division and Senior Championship status with a nervy win over Liatriom on Saturday afternoon writes John Murphy.

The season ended with them finishing ninth in the league and narrowly bowing out in the Championship group stages. All the same significant progress has been made and we thank the management and players for their commitment and endeavours this year.
