VOLUNTEERING
The Club is always in need of volunteers to help out at training sessions and matches especially at underage level. Volunteering can be a really enjoyable and worthwhile activity. It does not mean that you are committed to being available for every training session or match and you don’t have to be a trained coach to help out. If you think you could help out and you have an hour to spare during the week or perhaps you stay at the venue while your child trains, we would love to have you on board. You can speak directly to the coach at the training session or contact any committee member, or contact any one of the following numbers: Kevin Reilly(087-212011), Paul Bates(086-8363798), Kevin Smith(086-0810277), Mary McKenna(086-8613101), Mary Keady( 086-8310487).
