Doire Colmcilles’ senior team’s season got off to a disappointing start on Saturday when they were comprehensively defeated by Drum at Gortnahey.
There were good performances from Derry minor Dean Curran while the returning Mark Chambers and James McQuillan also impressed.
Colmcille’s next game is against Magherafelt this weekend.
Manager Brian Duffy will be hoping to build on the improvements witnessed towards the end of last season, particularly in light of the fact that a number of key players were missing for last weekend’s game through injury and work commitments.
Training times for the seniors and minors have been changed for the next few months. Both squads will train at St Columb’s college on Tuesday and Thursday evenings (7.00pm).
All players on other underage squads should check with relevant coaches regarding training times over the Easter holidays.
Colmcille seniors start their league campaign this Saturday with a game against Drum.
A number of Doire Colmcille kit bags are available for purchase at £20 each. Further details from club chairman, Mark Higgins.
Training times and venues for all Doire Colmcille club teams for the coming months are as follows:
