This Saturday sees the 1st XI travel to MCB to play in the first round of the Burney Cup, whilst the U13’s and U14’s host Wallace at home.
The girls were on their travels with the senior teams going to Victoria College and the juniors travelling to Armagh. The 1st XI lost and the seconds drew and all the juniors had closely contested matches against Armagh.
On Tuesday the girls 2nd XI travelled to Castlederg for a McDowell Plate match. This was a very exciting encounter in which the teams couldn’t be separated in normal time, needing penalty run ins to decide the tie. Cookstown were victorious in this and they now progress to the next round.
