Mens Football:

The footballers get their season under way this weekend in the first round of the McArdle Cup. Thomas McCurtains find themselves in Group One with Tara, Crawley and Brighton Gaels, Eire Og, and Shalloe Pearse. The first match is against Shalloe Pearse on Saturday 12th March at 3:30pm in Goodmayes. 

Training continues on Tuesdays and Thursdays at 7:30 pm in Goodmayes pitch (Post code: IG3 8FE). All new players are welcome. Please contact Martin Keyes (07712 106 349) for further details.

Camogie:

Camogie training continues in East London Rugby Club (E15 3BP) on Saturday morning at 11am.

The ladies had a very successful start to their season in the All Britain 9 a-side, winning their 3 group matches to top the group.  They were unfortunate to lose in the semi-final against Croydan but with great performances from experienced and new players alike, the team can look forward confidently for the coming season.  Congratulations to all involved particularly Martin and Jimmy on their managerial debut and captain on the day, Michelle Dolan.
