Coaching Courses: Why not make a New Year’s resolution to improve your coaching skills. Monaghan GAA are currently running a range of workshops as well as foundation and level 1 coaching courses. The first workshop gets under way this Monday the 18th in Cremartin with the focus on Equipment for Fitness Programmes. The courses commence in March and the cost for any member interested in going will be covered by the club. Check out the Official Monaghan GAA Website for full details.

Farney Army: It was great to see Donal Courtney make  his full debut for Monaghan on Sunday last. He gave a very good account of himself on the day. This adds to Anthony’s debut last week, I’m not sure if Blackhill ever had two men on the county team at the one time before?
