TYRONE NEWS

Commiserations to Cathal and the Tyrone team who lost out by a point to Mayo on Saturday last. All at the Club are sure it’s not the last we’ll see in a Tyrone jersey. For Cathal his County season ends with an O'Fiach Cup, McKenna Cup, National League Division 2, and an Ulster Senior Championship medal. Not a bad start to a season that has some miles to run yet.

Meantime good luck to Stephen Dooher and the Tyrone Masters who meet Antrim on Friday night in Killyclogher.

The Tyrone Ladies Senior team meet Clare on Saturday week in the quarter finals of the Intermediate All-Ireland Championship. Venue and time to be announced.
