Malin Gaa Summer Camp
The Cúl Camp was held last week and was a huge success with 178 children in attendance. We would like to pass on our heartfelt thanks to all those who contributed to another successful Cúl Camp this year.
Thank you to all coaches for coaching all week, they did a great job with such large numbers of kids. Thank you to the parents for sending their children, they were all so well behaved and a credit to their families. Thank you to all the coaches within our Club who took some time this week to also help at the Camp, in addition to the teams they usually coach. Thank you to Sean Owen & Martin Fildara for the buses all week. Thanks to Celia & Suzanne for helping in the Tuck Shop all week and to David, Daniel and Suzanne for getting the Clubhouse & grounds ready for action everyday.
A special thank you to the children for turning out in such large number, they were just fantastic all week. We would also like to thank all of our young Club Members/Players who helped at the camp all week including Seanain McLaughlin (F), Ciara McLaughlin (F), Diane McGilloway, Tara Kelly, Erin McLaughlin (F), Katie Farren, Siobhan Farren, Ronan Lafferty, Matthew Mullarkey, Michael Walsh, Adam McGonagle, Ronan Kelly, Jack McLaughlin(F), Micheal McCarron, Patrick McLaughlin(F), Darragh McGeoghegan, Ronan McLaughlin, Diarmuid McCarron & Peter McCallion.
Thanks to the County players who attended the Camp yesterday for photos, it was great to see Caolan McGonagle in advance of the Ulster Final on Sunday.
