we

increased our mark by 1 point this year, but the report was very positive and congratulatory. Some remarks from the report include the following.

The new School was regarded as an impressive building finished to a very high standard, its landscaping The newly painted Community Hall was admired as was the new car park. The Church and car park was also admired with its beautiful flowers. Spar and the Co Op looked well and presented to a good standard.

Colourful planter displays and planted beds, hanging baskets at several locations were all admired especially mentioning all the year round colour. The old Mill Stones at the entrance to Community Field were another attractive feature.

The Community Field and Creche area were of an impressive standard, the bridge area was colourful.

Litter control was considered excellent. The presentation of houses along the main thoroughfare were mostly of a very high standard as were the housing estates with no litter visible on the day. The village welcome signs set in planted beds were admired as they provide a positive first impression to visitors.

Of course there were a few comments about a few black spots, but overall congrats are in order to all those who do their best to keep the village looking its best all year round. Well done to all who help with flowers -planting, weeding and watering. Thanks to Con for his assistance.

Well done to both teams in this under16 Championship Final game which ended in a draw on Saturday evening last in Inchigeela. A great effort put in by Clondrohid against a very good Ahane Geals team, the Clondrohid lads were down a goal at half time but in the second half they took on Ahane Geals with more drive and started picking off scores. Deep into time added on, Clondrohid led by a single point only for Ahane Geals to draw level from a free which proved to be the last play of the game. Both teams live on to fight another day. Well done boys keep up the training this week and best of luck in the replay.
