Elphin GAA CLUB NOTES 29th JUNE 201

November 8, 2018

The Juniors take on St. Aidans in the last group game of the Championship on Saturday at 6pm in Tulsk. 

Our “Couch to 5k” Challenge has begun and new attendees are welcome to join in tomorrow night (Wednesday) with registration at 8:30pm in the Clubrooms. Training will take just 20 minutes, three times a week for eight weeks so come along, have fun and get fit in the lead up to Christmas. 

The U-13s had a comprehensive win over St. Croans in the Feile Preliminary Round and play Tulsk in the next round on October 10th. 

Congratulations to Alan Gormley, Danny Traynor, Declan Main and Evan Gunn who qualified for the Connacht U12 Skills Final at the County event which was held in Kilbride this evening (Tuesday). 

The Parish League will continue over the coming weeks and the panels will receive a special Coaching Session from Roscommon star and Connacht Coaching Officer Cathal Cregg next month. 

There is no U-10 Coaching this Saturday however it is hoped to have a Blitz on Saturday week and details will be sent to parents via SMS. 

Coaching for U-6s and U-8s came to a conclusion on Saturday and the Club wishes to thank Iggy Geraghty, Joe Morris, Adrian and Justin Kielty for their great work with the players over the past number of months. The Coaches feel that the players have come on in leaps and bounds in terms of skills and confidence during the season and they wish to thank the players and parents for their cooperation. Many thanks also to the parents who prepared refreshments for the Blitz. There was no winner of Saturday's Club Lotto Jackpot, numbers drawn 5, 6, 11, 24.
