Dublin Ladies Notes - Sunday 14th March 2010

  • Mar 15,2010

The County Board will meet on TUESDAY 23RD MARCH next in Parnell Park at 7.30pm. Matters for the agenda are to be with the County Secretary on/before Tuesday next.

We are seeking to put together a PRO Sub-Committee and a Trophies Sub-Committee. Clubs are asked to identify and nominate members for both. As the workload on the Executive Committee grows exponentially with ever increasing membership and activity in the County we are asking that the net be widened. There may be expertise out there within the Clubs waiting to be tapped. Any and all potential candidates can contact the County Secretary.

Hard Luck to the Dublin Seniors who were 5 short of Monaghans 13 points in the Bord Gáis NFL.

The Dublin U14s got off to a flying start against Kildare last Saturday. See notes elsewhere on the website. Well done girls!


Apologies for the late cancellation of the FUNdamentals Course last Saturday. This was outside of our control. As many of the participants were intending to go on to the Level 1 Course and as FUNdamemtal certification is a requirement for the next course, we dont have enough to go ahead. The Level 1 course is postponed next Saturday. More details later.

The Annual Congress motions have been circulated.  Clubs should study the document so that we can give direction on all the matters to our delegates at the Co Board meeting.

Once again Clubs reminded that only players who are REGISTERED can train or play CPG na mBan. This is in the Rule Book. New players registered now will be covered until the end of May 2011. Existing players registered last year will lapse this coming May - i.e.; in about 9 weeks. So now is the time to set about collecting their 2010/11 subscriptions.

Round-up:
  • We read that Lucan Sarsfields ran a very successful Fashion Show last week. Pictures in the Gazette newspaper.

  • A day of football and fundraising happened in Naomh Peregrins on Saturday. The 4th Annual Marianne Costello memorial took place and this was followed by the unveiling of a Commemorative Plaque. Later in the evening, Richie Costello presented Barnardos Charity with a cheque representing months of fundraising and he is off on a sponsored trek through the Himalayas at the end of the month. Well done Richie, well done too to Rodger Watters for the usual great days football. For the record, nine clubs participated and the Tournament was won by Round Towers Clondalkin, runners-up Cuala. In the Shield, Clannagael Fontenoy took the honours and the hosts took silver.


Have a good St Patricks Day
