Our Senior team capped a fine season in the league with a victory over Loughinisland which confirmed a top six finish for them writes John Murphy.Kyla Trainor and Orla Boyle performed heroics in the Red and Black as Down Ladies won their way to an All-Ireland Final.
And finally the Fundraising Committee really came up trumps with the Summer Festival… from the juvenile disco, magic show, reptile show, Johnny Brooks, the Wolfe Tones to RGU Down Through The Ages it has all been a great success.
