HELP
The success of the club is built on the willingness of people to become involved. We are always on the lookout for juvenile managers & coaches to help out with our underage teams. The club simply cannot operate without plenty of help and we are appealing to people especially parents to volunteer their services to help out with our juvenile teams. You do not have to be an expert and you will be instructed by an experienced coach, but please come forward and volunteer. You may be able to spare one hour on a Saturday morning or one evening per week to supervise at training sessions, or maybe at a game. Whatever you can do please do come forward and offer your help as we need as many people as possible. You never know you may enjoy it and your children will certainly benefit from it.
Club Membership
Club membership is now due once again and can be paid to our newly elected club Registrar Pat Brannigan. With the new football season approaching ALL players should pay their membership as soon as possible otherwise you will not be covered under the GAA insurance scheme.
Sympathy
