Edenderry GAA Development update

 

A Final Grant of Planning Permission is expected later this week  so that developments can continue on our new site at Carrick Esker. 

 

As everyone is well aware our new pitches have really taken shape over the summer months and look great.  We are very keen to get our teams onto the pitches and use them in anger. Our groundsmen led by Pat Cullen are doing a remarkable job in keeping the pitches in tip top condition. 

 

In the coming weeks some key infrastructure will be installed;

4 sets of goals posts to be installed 

4 ball stopper nets to be erected behind each goal 

4 Dugouts

Pitch side fencing around pitches 

Walking path surrounding pitches and site perimeter 

New entrance wall & gates

Boundary fencing around perimeter 

Parking layout & surface dressing 

Ducting for future floodlighting 

Service connections; electric, water & sewerage 

Temporary dressing rooms installed. 

Other elements such as the permanent dressing room building, floodlights & ball wall will be delivered in later phases. 

 

This is an exciting phase and the site will really begin to take its final shape in the coming weeks.  We are looking forward to hosting an open day for members supporters and Donor Wall members very soon.

Edenderry V Rhode

Rhode 0-9
Edenderry 0-6
This was a most disappointing match played before a small attendance at Bord na Mona O Connor Park on Wednesday evening Last.Edenderry started well and were level at 2 points each early on after a Cian Farrell free and a good point from play by Sean Doyle but did not score for the remainder of the half and went in 0-6 to 0-2 behind.Rhode went five ahead after half time but Edenderry got within three with points from Sean Doyle and Ciaran Hurley but this was as close as they would get as Rhode kicked two further points before the Reds scored the final two to leave them three behind at the finish.Edenderry will be unhappy with this performance and have much work ahead to be serious championship contenders.

For U6, U8, U10 & U12 players we will provide a weekly game for 4-5 weeks (depending on numbers registered) commencing in September.  The weekly games will lead to a finals day that will be hosted at our new pitches.

 

Please click on our website - its FREE - and its for existing players and also for new players if they wish to try it out.  New players will have to pay membership in order to be covered by the club insurance. 

 

Players will be allocated a team, either Dublin, Kerry, Tyrone, Offaly, Mayo, or Galway.  They will be given a jersey for the duration of the Blitz.

 

We are also hoping that parents give a helping hand.  Our existing coaches will manage teams but would love some assistance from the parents.
