FUNDAMITCHELS:
The John Mitchels GAA Club in association with Active Kingdom had their first session of Fundamitchels at the John Mitchels Complex this morning. With the help of our many Mentors and Development Committee the Club registered over 150 boys and girls into the programme.

So if interested come along next Tuesday evening at 6.30p.m. and pay a Registration fee of €10. This also entitles each registered child a John Mitchels Jersey at the end of he Programme.
