Sean’s Notes
Team manager. The man who will guide the fortune of our adult’s team quest for promotion and glory for the coming season will be decided at this week’s committee meeting. Print deadline doesn’t allow the disclosure of the successful candidate name at time of copy submission, but no doubt this long awaited decision will be in the public area and on the club grapevine late on Tuesday night. That and other news surrounding administration personnel both on the Executive and youth committee will appear here next week.
Under age. Plans are currently being put in place to establish a youth committee to spear head under age activities in the club for 2013. With activities for most age groups commencing shortly it is worth reminding parents that all underage children participating in football activities within the club that ; it IS mandatory to use a mouth guard in all Gaelic Football matches and training session from January 1st 2013 for all age groups up to and including minor. So when you go shopping for those new boots, shorts, etc. don’t forget a mouth guard must also be included on your list.
Cultural Night. Our Traditional Irish Music session takes place on the 2nd Friday of each month. Next session takes place this Friday, 11th January @ 9pm sharp. In 2013, a concerted effort will be made to embrace the wider cultural elements to our night, considering we have so many talented dancers and singers in our midst. We look forward to seeing you all there for a great night’s entertainment. Refreshments served.
