Juvenile Presentation

It was great to see such a huge turnout at our presentation evening. The spirit of the club was in full flight with everyone enjoying themselves. Children were presented with certificates & medals by their coaches who worked tirelessly throughout the year & watched each child improve their skill. The club provided goodie bags for the younger children and hot food for the older age groups. A big thankyou to all who helped organise the evening and those who helped in anyway during the evening itself. The club wishes to thank Marty Corey from Monaghan Coaching staff for taking the time out to present the medals on the night and say a few words.

Coaches

With the year now at a close the juvenile committee would like to take this opportunity to thank all the coaches for their hard work and commitment throughout the year. Without these volunteers our children would not be competing at the highest level. We look forward to their continued commitment for 2016 and hopefully a few new faces will join them along the way.

Strength & Conditioning

Our strength & conditioning program continues this Friday from 6pm to 7pm. So far the turnout has be disappointing. Children playing U12 to U18 are welcome to attend. Parents can watch the session also. Head coaches could you please send a reminder to your team stressing the importance to attend. €3 per session.

Juvenile AGM

The juvenile AGM is on Friday 13th November in the Community Centre at 7:30pm. The club would like to keep improving. If you have any suggestions on how we can do this come along and share your idea with us. At least one parent from each house hold is requested to attend. We welcome new coaches, committee members or anyone who is willing to help in any way.

A.G.M

Rannafast Semi-Final

Patrician High School Carrickmacross 1-11 St Patrick’s Maghera 1-8

The Patrician High School Carrickmacross delivered a huge shock result in Garvaghey Co. Tyrone on Thursday last. They proved that the “favourites” tag means nothing. It was an absorbing game that was in doubt right until the final whistle. The Maghera team suffered their first defeat in their Ulster Colleges’ football career that had already delivered four cups at under-age level. But the Patrician boys fully deserved to be playing their neighbours St Macartan’s, Monaghan in the “A” Schools Rannafast Final. The Patrician boys will relish this challenge.

It is a pleasure to watch the top players from all the surrounding clubs (Magheracloone, Carrickmacross, Inniskeen, Meath Hill, Drumconrath, Corduff , Donaghmoyne and Kingscourt) play superb Gaelic football together. We would like to wish the team and Management in particular the Mitchell representatives Conor Mc Keown (Captain), Niall Marron, Liam Óg Murray, Barry Kieran & Dylan Mc Cahey the very best of luck in the final against St. Macartans.
