Sincere thanks to Kilglass GAA club for providing refreshments after the final, to the Mc Glynn family and to the Northern Board for organising this competition. Thanks to each member of the under 14 panel for their hard work and commitment throughout 2016 and also to their parents for their ongoing support.
