Senior League Division 1E – Swinford v Bohola Moy Davitts

Swinford enjoyed a very good win this afternoon against Bohola Moy Davitts by 1-14 to 1-10 to maintain a strong challenge in Division 1E. It was a game we led from start to finish and should have had more to spare at the end. A number of chances were wasted and the last score of the game with the last kick of the game was a penalty for the visitors.

Senior League Division 1C – Mayo Gaels v Swinford

On a very wet Sunday afternoon the home team came out on top of a battle in Mayo Abbey by 1-10 to 2-4.

It was a game that we should have got something out of, having the vast majority of the possession in the second half. Trailing by 4 at the interval, we then conceded a penalty shortly after the restart and were down by seven but a very spirited revival created a lot of chances but we could only get within 3 points of Mayo Gaels.
