With no Premiership matches at the weekend we managed to catch up with games across all three of the Championship leagues.
Bob Given Photography caught up with Saturday’s match at Stormont.
Letterkenny travelled to Dundonald, to play Civil Service on Saturday afternoon in a Ulster Championship Division 3 League Game.
Much of the 1st half was spent by both teams sounding each other out and resulted in 40 minutes of defense orientated play.

Civil Service took the lead after 7 minutes with a long range penalty by Peter Hoskins.
Letterkenny responded on 21 minutes when Ben Scott squeezed in in the corner for a try. Tony McBride landed the difficult conversion from the touchline to leave the score 3 – 7.
There was no other scoring giving Letterkenny a 3 – 7 lead at the break.
If the 1st half was a relatively dour affair, then Letterkenny’s 2nd half performance was a revelation. They began to dominate set and loose play and starved Civil Service, who rarely got out of their own half.

A brace of tries from Letterkenny’s David Brown on the 48th and 60th minutes, one from McBride on the 62nd and a fourth on the 68th minute, from Jack Kennedy, did not flatter the away team.
McBride and Darragh McConnell shared 4 successful conversions, 2 each, to give Letterkenny a comprehensive victory and maximum league points.
