Noel Mc Colgan:
The Seán Mac Cumhaills Club extends its deepest sympathy to the family of the late Noel Mc Colgan. Noel took on the management of the Mac Cumhaill’s junior team in 1985 and had great victories on the way to the Junior A County Final but unfortunately losing out to Fanad Gaels in Falcarragh.

St. Patrick’s Day Parade:
The club would like to say thanks to all the kids for turning out and wearing the club colours with pride in the parade! We showcased our club very well so well done to all those who attended and organised for such an effective and enjoyable parade which was no doubt enjoyed by the large attendance.
