Success for Armagh Juniors

Congratulations to Armagh Junior Zone Team who have reached the final stages of the Junior Zone Competition.
They put on a superb performance today in Hillsborough beating hot favourites Oriel 4-1 in their 1st game and then beat the hosts Lisburn 5-0 in their 2nd game.
This has been by far the best performance from the Armagh Juniors in quite some time and hopefully they can continue this form in the finals.
Congratulations also have to be made to Junior Coach Paul Whittle and Sandra Whittle who have gave up their time to coach our Juniors. This extra time spent with the juniors has proved to be a big success which was shown in the games today!
