Our
Club
Mna Na Deirge were originally founded in 1993. In the first season we
entered into Division 2 of the Tyrone League where we failed to win any
of our games. The following year Mna Na Deirge gained entry to Division
One lifting the Tony Fox cup without losing any games. The Derg ladies
found it hard to compete in the top flight and within 2 years of winning
Division 2 the club was forced to cease.
1999 saw Mna Na Deirge return
to football entering teams of senior & U12 level, although we were
unsuccessful in claiming any silverware, our U14 team made it to the 2001
division 2 final only to be beaten by Aodh Ruadh. Our senior team has
been growing in numbers over the past few years and have competed very
well in the league and championship in 2003.This year (2006) we have entered
teams at U10, U12, U14, U16, Minor and senior level with large numbers
attending training.
Our main objective is to make
sure that Gaelic football is provided for women in Castlederg. With an
active committee and continued support from our sponsors and supporters
we can make sure that Mna Na Deirge will continue to grow.
