Coaching and Development
With ever increasing playing numbers at all ages in the Club we are always anxious to ensure that every player is given the best possible coaching in the skills of the game. We are extremely grateful for the hard work and commitment of our members who volunteer to coach and assist in any way with each team. As in previous years we are looking for new people to get involved.
We have had a very productive 2015 and look forward to the same in 2016. This would not be possible without our volunteers. Bearing this in mind and planning for the season ahead we would like to invite anyone who would be interested in getting involved in any team from Saturday Mornings to Minors to get in touch. “Many hands make light work”. Coaching courses will be provided as were in other years and can also be updated. If you feel you have time to give please contact Juvenile Chairman Dinny O’Connor on 0879574410 or Senior Chairman Frank O’Connor on 0877971862. We are looking forward to hearing from you.
Looking out for our neighbours
It is that time of year when everyone is running around and busy and there may not be many club activities going on. We should take time out to remember those members who may be alone for whatever reason and take time to check on them. Remember it is important as a club to look after our supporters and neighbours all year round. Something very simple can mean a great deal and give a moment of support and show that we care.
