Juvenile


Annual General Meeting Our AGM was held last Thursday night 1st


Dec.


The meeting was very well attended at the GAA Pa- vilion. Chairman, Cormac Quirke gave an overview of progress, on and off the field, during the year in 2016. The Club, he said, contested and competed well in all competitions, winning trophies along the way including Fe 13 Pre- mier 1, C3 and Autumn Hurling Leagues, Fe 14 Premier 1 Hurling League, Premier 1 Challenge Cup and Regional Feile Win- ners. Our Fe 16 Hurlers won the Premier 1 Hurl- ing Championship and League double. The Fe 15’s had just been pipped by one point in both the Premier 1 Hurling Cham- pionship Semi Final and also in the Hurling League final. Participation at all levels of the Club had been tremendous during the year with the younger age groups from Fe 6 up taking part in the Go Games for- mat and in many Blitzes, Cul Camp, Easter Camp and Street Leagues. The Juvenile Club he said “was well structured” with the addition of new personnel to the Juvenile Committee. We’ve “achieved a lot off the field as well”, he said, “catering for 430 boys and 76 coaches”. All meetings of the Committee throughout the year had been fully attend- ed, which showed great participation. Great strides had been made in many areas including, Coaching, Membership Registration, Coaches Vetting and Child Protection and Awareness. Each member of the Committee gave their end of year reports as did each Team Manager.
