Milltown/Castlemaine MEMBERSHIP/ REGISTRATION DAY AND FOOTBALL GEAR SWAP SHOP- GAA clubrooms, Milltown on SUNDAY FEBRUARY 11th, from 12 noon to 1:30pm.
Our club is having a registration event for all those wishing to play football with our Club this year, from the Milltown/Castlemaine area, as well as those wishing to join as adult members. All players must be registered in Croke Park by March 31st.
There will be a free football for all players under the age of 10 that register on this day.
This year anyone wishing to enter a draw for tickets for Kerry matches must be a member before March 31st.
We would ask all adult members to try to sort out their membership during this time as it is difficult to collect same during the year. Again, please note, anyone paying membership after 31st March will not be entered into match ticket draws.
At the registration, children will also be able to meet some of our coaches and swap any football gear or boots which they may have outgrown. There will also be some new club gear for sale on the day at knockdown prices.
Our club caters for both boys and girls from (6 to under 10’s) and boys only thereafter from under 12 to senior men. There is a GIRLS/LADIES football club in the community (Milltown Listry Ladies) from U12s.
Light refreshments will be served. The following are the registration fees for this year:
Adult €50
Student & OAP €30 (Under 6s are free)
Family (Up to 2 adults and all U18s) €100
Couple €80
As the club look to develop new facilities to cater for the growing local population, we would ask you to consider our family membership. This entitles every one of the family to be entered into draws for tickets to Kerry games. You will also get free entry into all home league games in Milltown during the year. But most importantly you are contributing to the growth of a very important outlet for the children in our community.
Any queries contact Ian on (087) 252 1053 or Podge on (086) 839 8669
We look forward to seeing you there!
