           Great to see the redevelopment of the clubhouse at Maginn Park in Buncrana underway. The @InishowenLeague was allocated €460,000 through the Community Sports Facilities Fund in 2024 for the project that will see the building being transformed into a state-of-the-art facility.

             A dramatic late goal by the Republic of Ireland's Abbie Larkin secured a 5-4 aggregate win over Belgium tonight to secure promotion to the UEFA Women's Nations League A. This result in Leuven has also earned them a play-off for the 2027 World Cup. #COYGIG
