Intermediate Championship

Well done to the Caulry Intermediate squad who had a great win over Tubberclair in a second round tie in this year's Intermediate championship which was held last Friday evening in very inclement weather conditions in Tang. Bursting out of the blocks from the word go and courtesy of two well taken goals by David Brookes, the first a gem which was a great team effort being worked up from the half-back line, Caulry played some excellent attacking football and went into the break with a lead of eight points. As expected, Tubberclair hit back strongly in the second half with five unanswered points of their own, but a young and fit Caulry team held firm and a great closing point from play by Alan Rigney sealed the win on a scoreline of Caulry 2-9 Tubberclair 1-8. This second successive win puts Caulry at the top of their Division and they now play Tang in the next round which is scheduled for week-ending July 8th.

Family Fun Day

Caulry are holding a Fund-raising Family Fun Day on this Friday evening, June 22nd commencing at 6pm in the Park. The main event of the evening will be a 20k Sponsored Cycle Event which will commence from the Park and will take in the rural environs around the Mount Temple area. Sponsorship cards have been distributed to all players from U/12s to the Adult Teams and we are hoping for a big turn-out on the night for the Cycle Event. Anyone still wishing to take part in the Cycle Event can obtain Sponsorship Cards from any Team Mentor or call Ronan at 0876495743 or Ger at 0872351982.

Other events to be held in the Park itself will include an adult Tug-O-War involving some local 'Sporting Teams' and novelty fun activities for the younger children.

The evening will conclude with a BBQ and Club Raffle to be held in Egans of Mount Temple at 9pm and all participants and parents are cordially invited to attend.
