Club Notes 5/2/13


With the playing season still a few weeks away, attention last week was on the draw for the first round of the Junior A Football Championship made last wednesday the 30th of Jan at the GAA Pavilion in Dunmanway. With twenty-three teams in the hat for the draw it was Gabriel Rangers who the Kilmacs will play in the 1st round. Gabriel’s been the champions in 2010 and will prove a good test for the junior footballers. The  team who is defeated in the 1st round will face a difficulty test in round 2 where they will face the loser’s of the tie between St Mary’s and St Oliver Plunketts. The Junior 3 championship draw was also made and this see’s the Kilmacs pitted against great rivals Tadgh MacCarthaigh in the Quarter Final with the winners to meet Castlehaven in the semi final. This team won this title last year in a tight tense final against St Colums in Aughaville and will be hoping to defend their title this year. The u21’s will need to wait a little while longer to find out who they will play in the u21 B championship 1st round as this draw has been delayed due to an issue regarding grading. As soon as this draw is known it will be posted on the club facebook and twitter account.
All team mentors are advised that a Defibrillator training course is taking place this Saturday 9th February in the GAA Pavilion between 9:30am and 2:30pm. It is very important that all mentors attend.
Kevin Whooley (Shreelane) and Diarmuid O Callaghan (Maultrahane) were part of the St Fachnta’s De La Salle school team that was defeated by De La Salle Macroom in the Corn Ui Mhuiri schools competition recently.
A fundraising Ceili will take place this Friday night 8th February in the Community Hall in Leap at 9:30pm. Music will be by Tim Joe and Anne and refreshments will be served on the night.
