DONAGHMORE: The club is running a competition to find every destination that the blue & amber of Donaghmore is on show. If you are on holiday, travelling or live abroad, bring your Donaghmore jersey and submit a photo via Twitter/Facebook. We will share all entries and, in September, draw a winner. Top prize is a new Donaghmore playing jersey and ¼ zip.

Any club member interested in undertaking training for GAA refereeing, please contact any member of the committee. Courses are currently taking place for girls/boys aged 14-17, but alternative arrangements can be made for any interested club member outside this age bracket.

Club Tyrone summer camps will take place in Donaghmore from July 24-27. Places can be booked online at www.tyronegaacentre.com/tyrone-gaa-summer-camps.

The local youth club has recently restarted, with a few volunteers helping to supervise the children on Tuesday and Friday evenings. Unfortunately, the success of the relaunch means the club is currently short-staffed, especially on Friday evenings. Anyone interested in helping out can contact Grace Girvan in BEAM for further information or, alternatively, speak with Éamonn Hamill or any member of the Donaghmore committee.
