Apologies for no tweets yesterday as I wasn't around for the game vs the gaels because I was at a wedding but from what I'm hearing we were both hammered.
It is with immense sadness that we as a club and community inform you of the death of Tyler Haynes.
Tyler is a member of our Under 17 team and has contributed to various teams at all age levels.
Ballinagh GAA and the wider Ballinagh, Lacken and Cavan GAA communities are in mourning at the sad death of Thomas Moore. Thomas' passing has left a deep void in the community that will be difficult to fill. He represented both his club and county with extreme pride winning all

Luke Fortune is deemed to be fouled and Gearoid McK kicks the free. 14 yards out and he manages to kick it over the net at the back of the goal into the next field. Why? That's a good ball, worth 50 euro. Just tip it over lad
With the restrictions on attendance at GAA organising tickets for supporters for the games is a massive pain, I'm sure all other club admin people doing it will agree.
However on the plus side I've never been as popular in Ballinagh, I'm like a God to them people now.
Thanks everyone for the congrats and well wishes over the last days. It's a good sign when it's Thursday before I get to post that
Congratulations also to all our young lads with their likes on their new Facebook profile pictures, that's what it's all about at the end of the day
Ballinagh GAA would like to express their sympathies with the Halton's (Drumcrow), The O'Reilly's (Main Street Ballinagh) and

Best of luck to Niall and Ballyhaise in the intermediate first round this week vs Bailieborough. Hopefully he gets through it unscathed and is fit to play in the first round of the senior championship with us next week

After an altercation on the line from our lines man Brian McEvoy and Donal Keogan, Brian has now been barred from the Imperial for the foreseeable future. Donal is still welcome to Barney Macs
Our Captain and one of the best lads you will ever meet. A lad who deserves to captain this fantastic club lifts the cup for us. A lad that trains underage at u10, u14, u20 and is on the committee. A proper club man. What a captain, what a man
Best of luck to all our players, members, supporters and followers receiving their Leaving cert results tomorrow. Remember it's not the end of the world..... getting bet by Lacken in the championship is
It's just a great chance to say thanks to the mass support over the last couple of weeks all around the country. We've lost our first two but to drive around different areas of Ireland and to see the yellow and white flags adorned on houses and chapels is a big boost.

Tom Moore and Bun exchange passes and Moore finishes the move. They have a great understanding of where they both are at all times. Usually it's either Barneys or Cronins but it translates to the field the odd time too
Some people look to movie stars, to musicians and to athletes for their heroes, however, quite often, the real heroes, are right in front of you. Thomas Moore was one of them.

You're more than welcome to come celebrate like we did with you last year. Actually cost us the championship last year......on second thoughts....forget about it

It's been a big few days for Ballinaghs Kevin the Bun. First he is awarded a Breffni Intermediate All Star for 2019, then he met GAA PoTY Stephen Cluxton on Friday night before sharing a pint with Joe Brolly yesterday. Keep up the good times Bun
Everyone at Ballinagh GAA want to wish Paddy's gawson Kevin The Bun the very best as he marries the much more successful senior footballer and beautiful Ann Marie Moynagh this coming Friday in enemy terrority in Bruskey .
Reminder for the senior game tomorrow, slightly earlier start time of 4pm. Just €8 to get in, you may want to go the the ATM for cash today, it may not be there tomorrow

Game a few minutes from throw in here. Lovely day it is for it, as it was for the lovely Blessing of the Graves in Ballinagh earlier, where the celebrant treated us to a humdinger of a quote, stating that's "it's great to see the new grave yard starting to fill up" He meant well.
So it's becoming the done thing for a club to thank the host club for the championship game just played there. But flip that, that's twice we've played in

Congratulations to our marathon man. Patrick Butsy Carroll who started his marathon run at 6am this morning and finished just after 10am. Butsy is doing this in aid of Sosad. Well done Butsy. With virtually no training just ran a marathon. Machine
Sorry folks, not up to championship pace yet. It was half time for a long time in my tweets during the game because I had forgotten to press go on the timer. I'll regroup and think about my performance and come back stronger the next day 💪

Happy 18th Birthday to our biggest supporter Kyle McGrath.
He couldn't get out to celebrate so Ballinagh and his friends brought the celebration to him. Over 50 cars vans and tractors came out to say happy birthday
Ballinagh want to wish Cathal Fitz a very happy 90th birthday. Cathal has been a Ballinagh man all his life and seen all the highs and lows of the club. (Cathal is on the left in the photo)

Credit to both sides for a really enjoyable game. Only enjoyable because we got a last minute winner and in no way enjoyable for Laragh losing like that.
Ballinagh has a star. Here's our All Ireland winner Gus Bogue, he's hard to spot but he's wearing a big happy head after claiming All Ireland glory at the Fleadh Cheoil na hÉireann in Drogheda yesterday
What an absolute inspiration

All the best to Ballinagh footballer Fergus Bogue in The World Squeezebox Championship Cup (Also known as the All Ireland Button Accordion competition) at Fleadh Cheoil na hÉireann in Drogheda this weekend.
There's a game of soccer taking place in the astro here beside me between a lock of young lads from Ballinagh and Crosserlough. I think we are winning that at least. Granted it's about 12 on 3 but you take whatever ya can.
A great show of sportsmanship from Killdallans number 10. Who came over to give physio assist to one of our players who was injured and then goes back to take up position at wing forward after treating the injury on the field. GAA at its best 👏
