Leinster Senior Championship
Well done to keeper Paddy Collum, manager Padraic Davis, and the rest of the Longford team and management on their great win over Carlow in Tullamore in the first round of the Leinster Championship at the weekend. The result could have been much closer were it not for a couple of fantastic saves by Paddy. Best of luck in the quarter final this weekend against Meath
Leinster Minor Championship
Hard luck to the county minors who were defeated by Kildare at the weekend. It was great to see St. Vincent’s represented with Paul McGee playing at corner back
