On Saturday November 22nd Throwing Shapes will be on hand to entertain with some great music in O Donnachas at 9pm.

Ballyduff AFC.
The U14C team had a 5-0 win over Hibernian FC. This was their fifth straight win which puts them top of the league. The team gave a great performance against a very sporting Hibs team and worked hard right up to the final whistle.
The U16 C panel also had a great game ending in a 5-1 win against Seaview Celtic. The team played well together with some great passing and applied pressure in all positions.
The U12 B team were unlucky with a 3-1 defeat over Villa despite plenty of possession and some good chances.
