Godspeed Joe.

It is with a heavy heart that we write this message, to pass our condolences on to the family and loved ones of Mr Joe Crowley.

Joe, our dear friend and former club Chairman recently passed away peacefully at his home. Joe, along with brothers Flor and Jerome and brother-in-law Denis were stalwarts of many a Dunmanway pack during a golden period for us in the 1980s, as our small West Cork club took on many sides of greater renown and resources, if not heart.

Following his playing days, Joe remained actively in touch with the Dunmanway rugby community becoming a friend and calm, collected advisor to so many of us over the years. He will be greatly missed.

We're on a quick trip to France this sunny Sunday afternoon, for a check in on Darren Sweetnam's Oyonnax side. It was a tough start to the season with a number of defeats - including a hard last second loss to Grenoble. However the side seem to have turned a corner of late with 4 good wins on the bounce , the latest being a 12-36 bonus point win in Mont-de-Marsan on Friday evening.
Its 5th place in the table amd heres to more progress!

Best of luck to Darren and Oyonnax.

With most fixtures this weekend falling victim to the weather, it was left to the U14 Boys to fly the flag yesterday.

The lads had a great outing in Bantry yesterday afternoon, some great rugby played in a very competitive, good spirited game.Thanks to Bantry for hosting, and for the refreshments after the game.
The boys have a weeks break now to enjoy this win before their next outing at home to Clonakilty.

A quiet few days action wise but ending with even more positive news.

Well done to U17 players Jack, Levi and Gearoid who join the Cork County U17 rugby side. The lads will be in action this weekend representing the Rebel County in Musgrave Park.

Dunmanway RFC - 31
Midleton RFC -26

An enthralling game to open the weekend as our Senior side opened their league campaign in Milleenanannig last evening. A cagey first 40 saw Dunmanway take a 10-0 lead in at the half time whistle. 7 second half tries saw the lead swing wildly, first to Midleton (10-14, 2 tries) then back to the home side (31-14, 3 tries) before a late Midleton rally with 2 further tries brought the issue back into doubt.

Congrats to the squad on the result.

Thanks as always to The Arch Bar Dunmanway for its kind sponsorship.
