Under 16’s:
Well done to our under 16 boys who are through to the league county final after a great win in Convoy on Sunday. In one of the most courageous and battling displays by any underage team the boys won by a point with a “Paddy Shiels All-ireland final like” goal coming in the last attack of the game from Eoghan Carr. The boys were trailing by nine points at a stage in the second half but never gave up and got what they deserved in the end. They now play St Nauls in the county final this weekend. Check out our facebook page for confirmation of time and venue.

Dribble ‘n’ Solo-athon:
Mulroy Hoops Basketball Club and Gaeil Fhánada Bord na nÓg are hosting a 12 Hour sponsored Dribble ‘n’ Solo-athon to take place on Saturday 19th October 2013 in the Rossnakill Resource Centre. The event will run from 9am to 9pm. We are inviting families involved in either or both these clubs to take part as well as other families who may be interested in joining.
How will the Dribble ‘n’ Solo-athon work?
– From your wider family/friend circle select a group or groups of 12 – to include brothers, sisters, cousins, parents, grandparents, friends or anyone who is happy to give it a go!
– Each group should have a nominated leader – ideally a teenager/adult.
– Each group will be asked to dribble/solo for just 15 minutes.
– To make the event as fun as possible your group can dribble/solo in fancy dress – you could come in pyjamas, onesies, football jerseys, Disney characters or anything you fancy! There are still places available on the Time Table for groups to join in. Keep on eye on the Fanad Gaels and Mulroy Hoops websites/Facebook pages as well as local press for updates! We hope that you will get involved, have fun with your friends and family and help raise money for these two community based clubs.
There will be a quick meeting this Friday 11th in Rossnakill at 8.30pm sharp. Bord na nÓg are looking for helpers on Saturday 19th. Just a couple of hours of your time will help us so much, the more help we have the less time you will have to do. All help very much appreciated.
Scrap Saturday:
We will be holding a Scrap Saturday in the next few weeks. Anyone who has any scrap metal laying around, this will be a great opportunity for you to get rid. A contact number will be available in our notes in the coming weeks for you to call and have the metal collected at a time that suits both party’s.
Difibulator Course:
Anyone interested in doing a Difibulator Course with the club at a cost of €24 each, please contact Fiona on 0851555645 so she can arrange numbers and dates.
Child Awareness Courses:
Anyone who would be interested in doing a child awareness course should contact Fiona on 0851555645. The course will only take place should we have a sufficient number of people interested. We would like to remind anyone who is working with children within our club must have the GAA child protection.
