There are only two more Registration sessions and they take place this Wednesday (Feb. 20th) between 6pm and 8pm and this Saturday (Feb. 23rd) between 11am and 2pm. Both take place in the Clubhouse.

Membership Registration forms are also available to download from the club website under the downloads tab.
The Code of Best Practice in Youth Sport is also available to view and download from the website and should be read by all coaches.

Comhghairdeas le Andy McGranaghan who won in his semi final outing in the recitation competition of Scór Sinsir in Burt on Saturday. Andy gave a tremendous performance and will take part in the county final in Gleann t-Súilí this Friday 22nd February. The competition starts at 7.30pm and all club members who have an interest in Scór are asked to come out to support Andy. Go néirigh go geal le Andy.
Well done also to the quiz team who took part in Tráth na gCeisteanna but unfortunately for Cormac Goulding, Jamsie Connors and Francis Lennon, they came up against stiff opposition on the night. Our solo singer and current county champion, Seán Feeney was unable to defend his title due to a throat infection. The most important thing is that the club took part in scór na nÓg, Scór Sinsir and Tráth na gCeisteanna Bord this year and in the latter, the club got through to the Ulster final which in itself is a great achievement and gave a good account of themselves in the Ulster final where they ended in a respectable 4th place with 18 teams taking part.
