Well done to Lee Moore who lined out for the Derry Minors against Tyrone in their controversial Ulster Final defeat. A fine first half performance from seventeen year old Lee as he scored 2pts and set up Derrys only goal of the game. In the second half it was a mixture of poor distrubution from the midfield area and lack of ball supply into the Derry forward line which cost them the game. Derry minors now play Cork in the Qualifiers.
  Craigbanes Senior game against Dungiven was called off on Tuesday night. They are now due to play Magherafelt this Sunday at 2pm. Reserves 3.30pm. There is a doubt if the Senior match will go ahead due to Derrys match against Laios in the qualifiers next Saturday. Both clubs will no better by the weekend.

    And finally Craigbane G.A.C would like to send their sympathy to the family and friends of 19yr old Ryan Mc Closkey, Dungiven.
