Dromahair FC have had no notification of Covid cases but decided to cancel training in respect of rising cases and the best interest of their club members.

Neither Manor Rangers or Dromahair FC are playing matches at the moment as all fixtures had been suspended by the Sligo Leitrim & District Soccer Association on the back of the Government's decision to impose Level 3 restrictions on the entire country.
