Under 8 Go Games Blitz

The next blitz for the under 8 players is on Saturday 27th August and is a double blitz involving both the under 8 and under 10 players and it takes place at neighbouring club Latton between 10 am to 12 noon.

Under 10 Go Games Blitz

It's supposed to be summertime - you know - warm temperatures, blue skies, glorious sunshine, time to get outside and have some fun! But I guess, we had our 'two days' of summer earlier on in the year! Last Saturday (20th August) our under 10 footballers travelled to St. Tiernach's Park, Clones to take part in another Go Games Blitz and yet again it was a day for bringing your wet gear and off course this year's summer necessity the reliable and trusted umbrella. I don't believe I have attended a Go Games Blitz this year where there hasn't been rain! Having said all that, while the weather conditions were really awful the kids had mighty craic and they truly enjoyed themselves. We had two teams in action and they played games against Emyvale, Aghabog, Tyholland, Clontibret and Latton. Thankfully, the pitch surface was in excellent condition and it certainly did not affect the standard of the football played because all teams served up some impressive and scintillating football. I have to say, you could genuinely notice the intensity levels of the games were raised a notch or two compared to the under 8 blitz a fortnight ago and there was some delightful interlinking play that led to some wonderful scores. The football skills are improving all the time and well done to all the players who thoroughly relished their time playing at the home of Ulster football St. Tiernach's Park. Full credit must go to our mentors Fintan Larmer and Stephen Duffy for looking after the future stars of the club and despite the cold and wet conditions fair-play to all the referees and the organisers who took part in the proceeding's and last but no least many thanks to all the parents and spectators for travelling to support and encourage the kids. Well done all involved.

Gerry's Prepared Veg - Under 12 Division 4 (Shield)

Please keep your diary free on Saturday 3rd September because the Under 12 footballers will play Oram in the Division 4 Shield Final. The venue and throw-in time has yet to be confirmed and I shall keep you informed when details are fully known.

Gerry's Prepared Veg - Under 14

Next up for the under 14 footballers is a home game against Tyholland this Saturday 27th August at 12 noon. If the previous encounter against Tyholland is anything to go by it should be another tight affair and no doubt will be another highly exciting and fascinating match. All the best lads and keep up the good work.

Deepest Sympathy

On behalf of everyone at the Rockcorry GAA club I would like to extend our sincerest condolences to Caroline McGuirk and members of her family on the sudden passing of her sister Colette McAree (née McNally). May her gentle soul rest in peace.
