Club Notes

United had no game on Saturday having played league leaders Immaculata on Thursday night under floodlights at Grosvenor Leisure Centre. Despite losing 3-1 they put in a good performance with Johnny Hunter scoring from the penalty spot. This Saturday United travel to Sirocco Works for a league fixture.

The Albion’s home game against Ballynagross was postponed due to a snow bound pitch.

This week the Swifts travel to Groomsport on Tuesday night and then entertain the same team on Saturday at Millbridge.
