The younger age group performed very well and just fell short in their semi final.

Sympathy – We offer our heartfelt sympathy to Rita O’Malley and family Dublin and the Gilbride family, Manorhamilton following the passing of Gabriel O’Malley, Dublin. Gabriel was a former Melvin Gaels great on the famous teams of the 50’s and 60’s and was a regular attendee at Leitrim GAA football matches but especially those involving Melvin Gaels and Glencar Manor. Although living in Dublin for many years his love for Leitrim never wavered and his annual attendance at the Launch of Leitrim Supporters in Dublin was testament to this and a highlight in his calendar. May Gabriel Rest In Peace.
