East Cavan Gaels club notes

March 20, 2018

Saint Patrick's Day Parades;

What a great day! Despite the biting cold Donald Trump joined us and our hurling wall, with Mexicans on the other side, as we made our way firstly through the Kingscourt and then Bailieborough parades. Thanks to all who made the float, Brenden, Des, Kathryn,

Tadhg and Miriam. A lot of hard work paid off with prizes won in both parades. Thanks to our Mexicans who would not be used to the cold and to older players Joseph, Daire, Aaron, Gary, Charlie and Michael and to all players and families who paraded with us.

 

Monday hurling;

Most hurling fixtures for 2018, be that Ulster GAA, Monaghan and Cavan GAA will be scheduled for Mondays. Nine counties are beginning to use Monday as their hurling fixtures day this year which is a big step forward for hurling development. We expect all our players ages from U11 upwards to be available to us going forward. There will be no gaelic football fixtures on Monday, as like last year, so we hope many more Gaels who have not had the opportunity to play hurling will now take this chance as there should be no reason not to as Monday will be free from other GAA activity. The dual GAA star is still out there, join us.
