The Division 1 side finished out the league on Friday evening with a win over our near neighbours Milltownpass concluding Division 1 for 2023. Final score: The Downs 1-17 Milltownpass 1-11

The U14 Division 4 side qualified for the league final this week with a hard fought win against a determined Athlone side on Friday evening in Athlone. Despite an under par performance the lads just about did enough to claim all points on offer with a league final against Tyrellspass next Wednesday 19th in Tyrellspass at 7 p.m. All support welcome. 

 

 

Our U14 Division team had a tough battle against St. Lomans in the league this week. Despite a tenacious performance by our girls, St. Lomans managed to get more scores on the sore-board when the final whistle blew unfortunately leaving us on the wrong side of the tie. Final Score: 2-07 to 2-04 in favour of St. Lomans.

 

The U8 and U10 girls were in Killucan on Saturday morning for the latest round of Go-Games. A great morning of football with some fantastic evenly contested matches between both sides on display. Many thanks to Killucan for being wonderful hosts.
