Meeting of Senior Footballers 20/12/2004
There was a good attendance at the meeting of senior footballers at 7:30pm regarding management, training and the South Ulster League.

New South East SFL starts next February 22/11/2004
Eight of the Down Division One teams have entered the new South East SFL which commences on the 12/13 February next - Castlewellan, Liatroim, An Riocht, Bryansford, Ballyholland, Shamrocks, Longstone and Kilcoo will play in mixed groups with teams from Cavan, Fermanagh, Armagh and Tyrone. It should prove a very interesting competition to start the 2005 football season and give the clubs good competitive match practice.

Senior Football 04/10/2004
In Liatroim it started badly with players understandably arriving late for the 6pm throw in and got worse throughout the first half. A better second half saw us outscore Liatroim but the damage had already been done. It was no better in Bryansford on Sunday as a season that had briefly promised so much drew to an early close every bit as miserable as the weather conditions, and was a poor return for the season’s efforts of management and team.

Seniors Save in Division One for another year 04/10/2004
The Seniors lost both league games over the weekend to Liatroim and Bryansford, however due to Warrenpoiont's defeat at the hands of Liatroim on Sunday, An Riocht will be guaranteed Division One football next season. Saval and Warrenpoint have been relegated, while Mayobridge, Kilcoo, Liatroim and Burren will play off for the 2004 Div One title.
