COMMUNITY FORUM
The Club held a Community Forum last Friday evening as part of the plans to prepare our five year strategic plan. We would like to thank everyone who both arranged and attended the night especially the large section of people who attended who had no previous connection with the club
The benefits of the strategic plan for both club and community were discussed and will be seriously considered before the final plan is completed. The areas of discussion were Games Development, Ground Development, Communications, Finance and Youth Development and the various sub-committees on these groups will meet this week to progress matters with the Strategic Plan due to be launched next month.
NEW MANAGER
The Club would like to extend a big welcome to Ciaran Quinn who was appointed our new Senior Team Manager last week. Ciaran, who is from the Cullaville Blues Club in Armagh, was with St Malachy’s in Louth last year, and will bring a new approach to the club as we look to defend our Senior Championship title.
We wish Ciaran, his selectors and all the players the very best of luck in 2011 and can assure him he will have the full support of all the club behind him in his efforts to achieve success throughout the year.
