Under 16 League
The team suffered their first defeat of the league away to Cill Chomain on Tuesday 28th on a score of 4-11 to 2-8. They remain top of their division with one league game left.
Under 14 League
The team gave a very good display in their league game against Davitts last Thursday and were very unlucky to lose by 2 points. Its only matter of time before they click into full gear and get a few wins under their belts. Well done lads, it was a very good game to watch and the same again next week and ye will all be enoying success.
Minor League
We lost by four points in what was a very entertaining game in Gilmartin Park, Kiltimagh on Friday night. In very wet condiitons a late penalty and two points gave Kiltimagh the win by 5-10 to 4-9.
Senior Div 1E
In a match that management will learn very little from as Lacken came to Robert McCallion Memorial Park on Saturday evening and played very little football. A very easy victory for Swinford by 3-9 to 0-2. Swinford scorers: Michael Walsh 1-1, James Lavin 0-3, Paul McDonagh 0-3, Caoimghin McLoughlin 1-0, Pearse Rowley 1-0, Kevin McDonagh 0-1, Pearse Walsh 0-1.
