AUGHNAMULLEN JUVENILES – SARSFIELD STARS.

Following on from the Juvenile meeting on Thursday night last that was very badly attended by parents after a 100 plus messages sent out.  The parent’s present and the Juvenile Committee suggested trying to have a registration evening on February 8th, which parent’s have to attend to sign for and allow their children to play football and attend training on Saturday mornings.  If more help is not sought then we have no alternative but to disband the fundamentals of learning Gaelic football from the ages of 7 years to 4 years.

Coaching Corner.

Aughnamullen are hoping to run their own foundation course with includes code of ethics and child protection courses, if there are enough people interested in attending.  This is now compulsory to have if anyone is involved with coaching teams from senior level down to Nursery.

There are a number of football and coaching workshops coming up in the next month. Anybody involved with teams from u16 to senior should try and make these. Check these out on Monaghan GAA website for further information. Or contact Dermot Hamill on 0879209609.
