All underage coaching and training has finished until the New Year.

There will be a meeting of the Coaching & Games sub-committee in early January where mentors of all underage teams will be appointed for the coming season. The club are pleased to report that five more volunteers will be taking the GAA Foundation Coaching Award in the new year with a view to helping out with our underage teams.

The underage teams have made massive progress in recent years and due to increasing numbers we welcome more volunteers to join our sub-committee. We need help with many roles within the Club Coaching structure to oversee administration, schools liaison, assistance at training & matches by supervising or helping with transport, fundraising etc. You may not want to coach but you may be able to help in many other ways. Please contact C & G Officer Gerard Lenaghan (0785 426 2858) if you would like to volunteer to help out.
