Crossmaglen Rangers Club Notes 29/10/18
Armagh Ladies Division 2 Minor Championship Final
Cross V Granemore
The minor ladies took the field in Carrickcruppen to contest the Division 2 Championship Final. The game got off to a good start with Caomhinn O’Neill opening the scores for Cross with a well worked pointed. Cross fought the kick out at Shauna O’Callaghan, unfortunately the ball dropped short and into the keepers hands.Granemore carried the ball, and delivered it to their number 14, who was being marked by Faye Fitzpatrick. Faye worked hard to divert her first scoring attempt but it wasn’t long until she opened their score board.
Aoife McDermott’s strong kick out, consistently found a amber and black jersey, and this allowed us to produce from quality scores. Alexandra Clarke worked a point, then with the support of Shauna, followed it up with a goal. This was the start of a scoring spree from Cross, and when the half time whistle blew across led 3.07 to 0.03.
The second half commenced, Cross again dominating play, two quick points from Alex and Caoimhe. This set the pace for the second half, and across managed to find the net five more times, before Granemore managed to produce a score. Cross made good use of their subs, and just onto the pitch Kellie Shields scored a point. The final whistle blew with a score of 7.15 to 1.04.

Crossmaglen Rangers Club Notes 22/10/18.
Mr Paddy Kindlon Senior
When news broke on Saturday night that Paddy has passed away, we were immensely sad. Paddy, a true gentleman was devoted to the Crossmaglen Rangers Club.
Last year, when we celebrated twenty years from our first All Ireland win, I went to visit our President. Despite his frail health, Paddy was his usual friendly self and what a warm and hearty welcome I received.
Paddy had his club tie on and he reminisced about those glory days along with friends Noel & the Bishop. The craic was ninty! The visit couldn’t be complete without a photo shoot.

Ulster Camogie Junior Club Final
Despite a gallant effort from the girls, it wasn’t to be their day. It was an evenly matched encounter for most of the match but when Clontibret went two ahead in the final minutes of the game, we battled hard and had opportunities but just couldn’t get the scores.
Hard luck girls and management, we are so proud of you all.
Cross 1-05 Clontibret O’Neills 1-07
