Terry Hyland, Leitrim Ladies & TURAS
Description
It's been a rough weekend for most of Leitrim Gaelic Games with national league defeats for the county senior footballers and hurlers although the Ladies footballers did manage to put some sunshine with an eight point victory on Sunday afternoon.
This week's co-host Colin Regan (1:01 ) takes a look back at the National Football League defeat with Breifne Earley.
Leitrim manager Terry Hyland (3:02 ) joins the show to reflect on his side's reversal at the hands of Mickey Harte's Louth side in Carrick on Sunday afternoon. He talks about his experience of the game, what went wrong and the route from here for a side who saw their interest in the promotion hunt ended with that defeat.
One of the few bright spots was the return to action of Ryan O'Rourke (15:42 ) and we hear his thoughts after his return to the playing pitch after a long injury layoff.
Maeve Quinn (17:42 ) drops in to chat about the Ladies fine performance and big win over Louth in Ballinamore in their first League game of the season as they reversed a defeat to the same opposition last season as they pick up last season's efforts to get promotion from Division 4 which was cut short by the pandemic restrictions.
We also hear from Leitrim Captain Clare Owens (23:12 ) & Manager Hugh Donnelly (25:36 ) after the game.
Finally Colin and Breifne chat to Games Development Administrator Stephen McGurrin (41:25 ) about the roll out of the Turas programme across 16 of the counties clubs with over 400 youth coaches taking the first steps on their coach education journey.
Colin finished with a look forward (56:22 ) to the weekend's National Football League clash with Antrim and taking the positives from the current situation.
