Peter welcomed all committee members to the first meeting of the club and especially to the clubs new committee members Colm O Brien and Barry O Doherty. The meeting went very well in setting out the clubs plans for the 2012 season in sub committees, club teams and club team managers and selectors. This year our senior football team will have a new manager as our former manager Kieran Dore step down after two years in charge Kieran decided to take a break due to family commitments and all in the club would like to thank Kieran for the work he has done for our seniors, Our Mr football in the club Thomas Downes will take up the manager's job Tom was involved with our clubs football teams for over twenty five years and will take this roll with pride Tom was manager of our junior and intermediate football teams when we won both county football championship titles.

The club was sad to hear of the sudden deaths of Marion Crosse and Mrs Philomena Kelly since our last club notes, Marion is survived by Brothers Tony, Dick and Dermot and was also a Sister to our former club chairman Brendan Crosse R.I.P. Mrs Philomena Kelly was mother of our Club minor hurling and football selector Bert Kelly and Sister in Law of club members and supporters Frank and Patsy Kelly. Philomena Kelly lived in Strabane Co. Tyrone and was a great supporter of our club since her son Bert and Bother in Laws, Frank and Patsy got involved with our club. May they both Rest in Peace.
