AND - Club Notes - April 19th 2009

Senior/Junior Football
Armagh Notre Dame season got under way in the first round of the O’Brien cup against reigning Boston and North American Champions Aidan McAnespies. For the first game of the year all the players put in a great effort, and the club welcomed some much needed new blood onto the team. Following a tight first half and a well taken goal by Martin Tiffney, Armagh trailed 1-1 to 1-5. Unfortunately the Macs upped the tempo in the 2nd half and ran out worthy winners on a final score of 2-13 to 1-3. Both the Senior and Junior schedules will be available this weekend coming, with the first Senior Championship game probably being played the weekend of the 17th of May or the 24th depending on the draw.
