Well Done Again Down!
Down are through to their first ever All
Ireland Quarter Final (the last time the won the
All Ireland in 1994 there was no such thing a
Quarter Final. They put on a scintillating
display in Kingspan Breffini Park on Saturday
evening when they blew the beaten Connaught
finalists, Sligo on a scoreline of 3-20 to 0-10!
Ten different players got their name on the
scoresheet. The led 1-10 to 0-6 at half time and
added a further 2-10 in the second half, holding
Sligo to 0-4. Darren O'Hagan entered the fray at
corner back for the injured Damian Rafferty
early in the second half and was unlucky not to
score with his first touch of the ball - it was
deflected for a 45. Jason Brown also saw some
action coming on in the latter part of the
second half. Super sub Ronan Murtagh replace the
injured Benny Coulter in the second half and
scored a magnificent 1-5!

Campa Chormaic 2010 |
 |
A
big contingent of Clonduff youngsters
again attended Campa Chormaic in
Castlewellan which ran from 12th - 16th
July 2010. The Summer Camp, originally
established in Tyrone in memory of the
late Cormac McAnnallen expanded to Down
last year and such was the success that in
2010 it further expanded to Antrim and
Derry. It caters for young people aged
9-16 where they spend half a daily session
learning Irish and the other half doing
Gaelic Games and other outdoor activities
teamed up with children of equal ability
and age as far as possible.
The attendance at the Down Camp in 2010
was up by 25% on last year to just over
130 children.
Congratulations to our own Cathal
Fitzpatrick (centre, front row in Clare
jersey) who was awarded the prize for the
best Primary School child.

Clonduff. The 'A' Team won one of their
three games and lost two; the 'B' team won two

well as did all the children in both teams,
Clonduff lost the final but they were happy to

All it has
to do now is grow! The field was sown out on
Wednesday 30th June - the initial work was
hampered by the wet weather and the final work
was hampered by the long, hot, dry spell
stretching from early May to the final week in
June! However, it will be twelve months
before it is a playable surface and that
is eagerly awaited in Clonduff! |

The
New Development - Architect's Drawing |
 |
The
Contracts were signed on Thursday 22nd
October 2009. The Main contractor for the
provision of the new field and
flood-lighting is McAvoy Construction
(Annaclone). He has assured Clonduff and
Sport NI (the major funding partners)
that, weather permitting, the field will
be ready for re-seeding by Christmas
though it won't be sown out until the
Spring time. It will be ready for use in
2011 season.
The original driveway will be incorporated
into the new field. The new access road is
directly opposite the gate to the Chapel
car park. This work is a joint contract
between M & M Contracts (Crilly) and Leode
Quarries and this is a major priority. The
existing car park and back field will be
re-aligned to accommodate the new
development as shown in the Architects
drawings above.
Progress photos will be uploaded on a
weekly basis until the work is completed. |
