Junior B Championship 

Our second team played their final group game on Sunday last against Melvin Gaels in Kilglass. In a game that was close throughout, it was the North Leitrim men who did just enough to get over the line on a 2-13 to 2-10 scoreline. For the Bors it means we now enter a relegation final with Carrigallen – time and date tbc. 

Ladies 

The Junior B semi-final against Leitrim Gaels took place last Sunday in Gortetteragh. Our girls played their best football in the first half and were only three points adrift at the interval – 0-7 to 0-4. However, in the second period, the Gaels, aided by three decisive goals proved much too strong and ran out winners on a 3-16 to 0-6 scoreline. Well done to the players and management for their efforts throughout a year in which progress was definitely evident
