ANGLING CLUB GET CHILDREN'S OFFICERS
Members of the Carlow coarse angling club recently attended a Code of Ethics and Child Pro- tection in Sports course ran by the Car- low Sports Partner- ship. Five members of the club executive committee had al- ready completed the basic Code of Ethics course ran last month in Tullow Co. Carlow as part of a drive to introduce child protection officers into all sports clubs in Ireland. The club de- cided it was better to have more than one designated Children's Officer, therefore Gerry Mcstraw Chairman and George Quin- lan Treasurer went and completed the more comprehensive course to become officially trained Children's Officers for the Carlow cac.
The locally based angling club have in-
deed been very active throughout the year completing courses that will better enable the club to function as one of the most ac- tive coarse angling clubs in the country. Courses ran by the County Carlow Sports Partnership have been very well received by the club and its committee and mem- bers. The club have had eight coaches trained this year by the Angling Council of Ireland and have ran several six week pro-
Representatives of the Carlow cac and other Co. Carlow sporting groups at the Children's Officer training course.
grammes with the help of the Carlow Sports Partnership, I.W.A. Carlow branch, Rehab Car- low, Inland Fisheries Ireland, Waterways Ireland, Women's groups from Wa- terford and vari- ous other groups and organisa- tions through- out the county and indeed country.
There are also five committee members who attended and completed a First aid course ran by the Sports Partnership and Irish Sports Council.
The Carlow cac are undoubtedly a new
force to be reckoned with within Irish an- gling circles and keep going from strength to strength and making angling accessible for groups of people regardless of their so- cial standing or disabilities. If you would like any information regarding the Carlow cac or their activities please do not hesitate to contact Gerry Mcstraw on 085 2844566 or visit
