Volunteers Notes
June 29, 2009
Our U-12s put in a great performance in the Garda Sponsored event football tournament in Roslare. After having won their first two games they were desperately unlucky to lose their semi-final by 2 points. Well do to all concerned, the panel was: Cian OÄôKeefe, David Ngougi, Aaron Smyth, Coalon Kehoe, Brian Nolan, Ryan Kelly Eoin Long, Alan McGuire, Eoin Monaghan, Richard Kielty, Gary Cullen, Jessie Farrell, Shane Bates, Michael Lawlor, Eoin Mahon and Cian Brennan. A big thanks to the mentors, the Gardai and Roslare for the use of their facilities.
Despite putting in a hugely committed display our junior footballers lost out to table toppers Tara Rocks in their final league match. Attention will now return to the championship, the next round fixtures should be known soon depending on how our inter-county teams fare. Training for adult footballers is every Monday and Thursday at 7pm, while the hurlers train every Tuesday at 7pm.
