MIND THE
BANK!
Over
the winter months The Club has invested in a planting
program for the banks around our new Pitch. Hundreds of
new Dogwood plants are now in place which will provide a
highly attractive and colourful feature within Clonduff
Park as well as help stabilise the earthbanks.
It is
very important that these young plants are not disturbed
during this period and we would ask that everyone takes
care not to enter the planted areas as the plants are
very easily damaged at this stage of their growth.
Would all parents and
Mentors/Coaches please remind children and adults,
players and visitors not to enter
these areas so that the plants can be protected and in
the near future we can all enjoy a really special
feature of our continually developing 1st Class
facilities. |

Ladies Football Referee Course
As noted at the last County Board meeting there is a
"Grab Your Whistle" referee course for U12 Go Games, on
Monday 27th May 2013 in the Thierafurth Inn, Kilcoo.
This course will commence at 7pm and finish at 10pm, the
minimum age for the course is 15 years old and all clubs
need to ensure that they have at least 3 members who
have completed the course. Each home team needs to be
able to ensure in the Go Games that they supply the
referee so it’s imperative that we have a number of Go
Game qualified referees per club. The Board is hoping
that each participating club can supply three members to
complete the course. |

SDU12FL Clonduff v
Ballyholland
In the
U12 games against Ballyholland on Sunday 19th May 2013
both teams claimed very convincing wins with team 2
rattling up a very impressive 30 plus points victory.
Team 1 came out with a 2-6 to 0-6 win. There was some
great defending and very solid midfield and forward play
gradually broke down a very well organised Ballyholland
team. |

The Senior Hurlers
Get a Second Win
Clonduff 3-12 Kilclief
3-8
To quote the cliché,
‘this was the game of two halves’. With a strong wind
blowing across the pitch that presented no great
advantage to either team, Clonduff defending the
Rathfriland end goals in the first half. Giving the
recent weather, the top pitch was in good condition to
allow for good hurling.
Team:
David Quinn, Jamie Lowry, Christopher Brown, Shane
Quinn, Sean Downey, Shay Murnin (0-2), Rory Mathews,
Danny Nugent, Ciarán Smyth, Jamie Lynch (0-4), Shane
Murray, Pauidi Mathews (0-1), Rian Brannigan (2-1), John
Murphy (0-3), Darragh Downey (1-1); Subs Used:
Francis Quinn, Andrew Quinn, Christopher Young (Full
