Thoughts and Prayers: The club continues to offer our deep and sincere condolences, prayers and support for the family of club legend Nial ‘TIny’ Faloon. Player, coach and life-long supporter, Tiny will be remembered by many for being a figure of a man with an infectious laugh and smile.  A great sense of loss for a life lived fully but taken too soon. The club, both players and members continue to offer our thoughts, prayers and support to others in the club and community dealing with sickness and bereavement.

 

Scór na nOg: First round of scór na nOg was a great success. Plenty of disciplines including music, recitation, quiz, solo singing and ballad group.  Another great opportunity for our youth (U17’s) to get together, meet new friends and express their talents.
