We look forward to the start of the outdoor season for the U11’s this weekend.
Remember the U11’s for 2018 is all about skill development, participation & enjoyment!!
Please see attached the following
Couple of areas to be aware of this Saturday;
- Balance teams – We encourage all clubs to balance your teams (mixture of strong & less experience players). For clubs with two teams, if both clubs agree we have no issue if you select a team of 11 year olds & another team of 10 year olds.
- Assist Referees – Make sure you & players are aware of the rules. Please ensure all your players have WHITE sock on to determine non dominant side! Have pitch set up to determine scoring zone’s. Have a discussion beforehand with referee to ensure he/she is aware of the rules. Its important we help the refs in this area.
- If changing times of fixtures please contact Paul O’Connor 5 days in advance.
- There will be no re fixing of games, because the games are non competitive all games should go ahead.
- Clubs with less teams in their group should arrange challenge matches against other teams that may have a bye on any given week.
- Can HOST clubs please text Paul O’Connor (086 837 4827) on the score at the end of each game.
For any questions or queries regarding the U11 Spring League, please contact Paul O’Connor, Games Development Manager, on his number above or by email on developmentmanager.monaghan@gaa.ie.
