Gaeil Fhánada well represented at the Lidl NFL

Well done to Siobhan Coyle who officiated the Lidl NFL Division 4 clash between Antrim & Kilkenny in Rathmore, Belfast yesterday. Shout out also to her three umpires; JP Coyle, Hughie Shiels and John Cushnan. All giving our club a good name at inter county level.

 

GAA National Club Draw Update

Gaeil Fhánada are delighted with the response to the GAA National Club Draw in our area and would like to thank the people in our community who supported our fundraising effort.

While the GAA at national level sponsor the prizes for this draw, our club is also offering five prizes of €100 locally, with your ticket also being entered in a draw at county level for prizes sponsored by Donegal County Board.

This draw gives clubs a great boost at the start of the year when there are so many expenses to be paid, public liability, property and player injury insurance bills to name a few.

We would ask, in our final push for support this week, that every adult player and ordinary adult club member buy a ticket for €10. This week sees your final chance to do so and it eases the burden on all of us who have to fundraise to keep our club going.

Many thanks again, and we wish you luck in each of the three draws that a single €10 ticket gives you access to.

 

Lotto Results

€100 Winner: John Coll, Ballywhoriskey.

Comórtas Peile na Gaeltachta

Tháinig dea-scéala ar áis ó chruinniú chinnbhliana Comórtas Peile na Gaeltachta sna Gleannta aréir leis an nuacht gur roghnaíodh Gaeil Fhánada mar an t-ionad don chomórtas contae i 2020. Is nuacht iontach atá ann don chumann agus muid ag forbairt agus ag dul chun cinn de réir a chéile.

Maidir leis na himeachtaí ar an pháirc, imreoidh muid in eadán Gleann Fhinne sa réamhbhabhta den chomórtas shóisearach. Imreofar an chluiche sin roimh dheireadh na míosa seo ach tá an dáta agus am le socrú go fóill.

Beidh Comórtas F14 ann in áit comórtas F15 i mbliana. Beidh turas go Ghaoth Dobhair le déanamh ag na gasúraí sa chomórtas sin. Níl an tarraingt do chomórtas na mBan déanta go fóill.

We received great news from the Comórtas Peile na Gaeltachta AGM held in Glenties last night, with the news that Gaeil Fhánada were chosen to host the county Gaeltacht competition in 2020.

On the field of play, we will play Gleann Fhinne in the preliminary round of the Junior competition. That game will be played towards the end of February. The U15 competition was changed to U14, with our lads drawn against Gaoth Dobhair. The draw for the ladies competition hasn't been made yet.

Ádh mór lenár bhfoirne go léir a rachaidh chun páirce sa chomórtas seo!!!
