A peak audience on RTÉ Sport of 363k plus 44k streams on RTÉ Player for the Ireland Football ⚽️🇮🇪 WNT team. Average tv audience was 262k. Very strong performance considering Champs League at the same time. Well done to #COYGIG , Marie Crowe & RTE team.
First ever Fèile win for the girls Dromintee GAC following on the boys success in 2022 & 2023. Huge credit to a great group who will now proudly represent ArmaghLGFA at national level in June. A measure of the work invested by parents & coaches over many years.
Early Christmas present for Dromintee GAC U16 lads winning the prestigious Paul McGirr tournament. Sincere thanks to An Droim Mór for impeccable organisation & volunteer spirit & commiserations to Errigal Ciaran GAC who contributed handsomely to a great game.
Brilliant night at the ArmaghLGFA awards. 450 attending & a huge array of talent recognised. Top billing went to Senior player of the year Aoife McCoy from Dromintee GAC while the U14 squad received their Ulster medals. A brilliant group with a bright future.
A great eight days for Dromintee GAC . Under 13 Div 1 girls Championship, U16 boys Div 1 Championship, U16.5 girls Div 2 Championship . Four sets of siblings across the two older squads. Reward for their endeavours & the efforts of parents & coaches. 🔵⚪️🔵⚪️
The biggest television event of the year on RTÉ Sport . Average tv audience for Irish Rugby 1.22 million, peak 1.4m. 243k on Player. More on RTÉ Radio 1 & across digital & social channels.
The ArmaghLGFA Under14’s gathered at bluebell-lane.com to celebrate the new European Schools boxing champion Cassie Henderson. A super captain celebrated at a super location. The girls had a ball and more to come from this group in the years ahead. 🥊 🇮🇪 🟠⚪️
Absolutely delighted for Cassie. Captain of the ArmaghLGFA U14 team this year, led them to Ulster A final & a great leader. Dedicated, hard working, sets the standards by example, & a star across disciplines at just 14. A great kid. Captain, Champion & more to come. 🥊
