Buncrana GAA Notes for Week Ending Sunday 11th August
Annual Buncrana GAA BBQ: The annual Buncrana GAA Barbecue is one of the most enjoyable nights of the year and it takes place on Saturday 17th August. Delicious food, live music and great craic…Don’t miss it! Admission including food only €10.
Emergency Services: Buncrana GAA are delighted to offer our facilities to The Irish Coast Guard and the RNLI who will now be using our training field for emergency landings to airlift patients to Dublin when required. Last Tuesday they carried out a practice Helicopter landing and training drill on our grounds. Thanks to the RNLI, the Irish Coast Guard and all the visitors who came to view this spectacle.
Girls Football: Girls football training is on Monday night at 7.00pm sharp. Open to all girls from the ages of 9 to 16 years of age. New players are also welcome. Please bring your own water bottle.
U6 Fundamentals: Bun Cranncha C.L.G. youngest team the U6s (Fundamentals) have finished up for their summer break. After training hard all year, the team finished up with a trip away and a presentation morning at the Scarvey. The sessions were well-attended all year and no doubt we have some stars of the future involved in this age category. The coaches would like to thank all the parents who have helped us throughout the year. Last week a mini-summer camp was held at the Scarvey for the 5 and 6 year olds, again this was well attended, by both new and regular players, looking forward to seeing you all back next season. With some fantastic weather ensured it was enjoyed by both players and coaches alike. Sun-cream and water seemed to be the words of the week! The coaches (Claire Doherty, Jim Gillan, Declan Doherty and Bronagh McBriarty) would also like to thank SuperValu for sponsoring the fruit and water on our last day, helping to encourage good nutrition and hydration from an early age!
U12 Football: The U12’s season has now finished and the management team would like to take this opportunity to thank all the current squad and their parents for all their efforts this year. It is estimated that we played 25 matches this year, including teams from 9 different counties, so an excellent effort was made this year. A reminder that we will be going to Rockhill on August 17th, if anyone that has not received information on this please contact Aidan on 0862762671.
