Oh my, what a July we've had! Glorious weather, enthusiastic Cúl campers and super results following the break.
Seniors:
The lads welcomed Killean to Newtown last week, and ran out convincing winners 1-23 to 0-12. Emmett O’Malley was goal scorer on the night.
Thank you to A29 Service Station & Convenience Shop who sponsored the Match Ball.
Next up is away to Mullabrack this Sunday - all support welcome.
Minors:
The minors secured back to back victories, when they played Tullysaran on Monday just past. They started well, going a few points up, but Tullysaran got a goal to go in front after 10 mins. The lads fought back kicking some excellent points and a goal from Daithi O'Malley meant they went in at half time ahead by 3 points. The second half was competitive with both teams keeping the score board ticking over, but two pointers from Ciaran McCann and Aodhan Casey as well as another goal from Daithi O'Malley stretched the lead out. Tullysaran couldn't pull back despite a late surge. Final score 2:16 to 3:10 👏
U16 Boys:
After a break, the U16 Boys are back in action tonight in the League Cup against Setanta Gaels in Forkhill. Good luck!
U14 Boys:
The U14s had a great win against St. Colmcille's on Tuesday evening, final score 9-17 to 2-11. They're back in action tomorrow night v Tullysaran, keep 'er lit boys!
U14 Girls:
In an exciting encounter against Patrick Rankins, the girls won by the slimmest of margins, deserving winners on a scoreline 7-07 to 5-12. Brilliant effort girls and excellent teamwork on display.

U12 Boys:
Training resumed last night and they'll have a busy August ahead.
U12 Girls:
These troopers had a super win against Tir na nÓg on 19th July, with their training paying off. Some great kick passing, excellent fielding and sharp shooting.
They were put through their paces in a challenge game against a very strong Cooley Kickhams side, and the girls will be able to build on that experience as the League continues next week.
U10 Boys:
Training has resumed ahead of a busy August, with details of fixtures to be confirmed soon.
U10 Girls:
Our U10 girls will have the opportunity to play in a couple of hubs over the coming weeks, details TBC.
U8 Boys & Girls:
Our U8s will be back in action soon.
Congratulations🏆 to our underage player, Phelim Rock, who was crowned Road Bowls U12 Ulster Champion last week. There was a great turnout from Newtown to cheer him on, fair play Phelim - what an achievement!
A special mention also to our former player, Stephen Gollogly who is the manager of the Armagh Minor girls, the new All-Ireland Minor C Champions! They ran out winners against Longford, 4-17 to 0-09. A great result, well done to Stephen, his back room team & all the players.
