* Staying on the theme of activity and exercise, Sunday 24 March 2013 sees our second annual Spring Lake Challenge. Everyone involved last year will remember the fantastic weather we had for the event. Let’s hope the weather gods will give us the same early spring sunshine. You can register on-line for the race at www.athleticsni.org or on the day of the event. Further details will be available nearer the event time.
* Membership payments are due by 31st January 2013. Forms are now available in the club and also can be downloaded from our website; www.castlewellangac.com. We recognise that the player’s fees may be difficult to pay in one amount and so the following has been agreed for Adult Players Only. A minimum of £40 must be paid prior to the end of January 2013. Initial payment must be accompanied by a membership form. Final Payment must be made by 28th February 2013.
* Anyone interested in coaching or helping out with our underage teams please contact John O'Neill on 07711737610. You can never have enough coaches in a club. If you wish to help out with a team or just to come along and help, your assistance is very much appreciated.
* This is a notice for all coaches. A child protection course will be run in the club on Friday 7 February at 7.00pm. Can you please contact John O’Neill to confirm your attendance.
* A reminder that on Saturday 16 February 2013 Castlewellan GAC will host the Marie Jones play “A Night in November”. This will be performed by local actor Aaron Hickland. Tickets are on sale from the Club at £10 each. It is anticipated that tickets will sell very quickly as this play has sold out virtually everywhere it has been shown. Can you please ensure you purchase your ticket early to avoid any disappointment.
* On Sunday past our under 8 hurling team made the long journey to the Eddie Irvine Centre in Bangor to take part in a blitz. The boys performed well against Ballygalget, Bredagh, Portaferry and St Paul's Belfast winning three and narrowly losing the other match. The panel were; Luke McCabe, Nathan Garland, Niall Rice, Sheá Connolly, Sheá Stratton and Sean O'Neill - well done lads. A special thanks also to the parents whom were able to come along and support the team.
* Hurling coaching will continue on Thursday evenings at St Malachy’s Primary School at 6.00pm. From 6.00pm to 7.00pm coaching will cater for P1 to P4 boys. 7.00pm to 8.00pm will cater for P5 to year 8 boys eligible to play U12 hurling in 2013.
