Killeedy GAA Club Notes:
Killeedy Óg:
Killeedy Bord na nÓg presented the children of Killeedy Preschool and the junior infants of Scoil Naomh Íde, Ashford and Scoil Íde Naofa, Raheenagh with a hurley and sliothar during the week to celebrate the launch of the Cill Íde Óg nursery programme. Cill Íde Óg encourages all boys and girls turning four or older this year to get involved in GAA through fun and games. An introductory session for this group will be held on April the 1st during Lá na gClub.
Killeedy All Stars:
Over the past five weeks Killeedy GAA and Camogie Health and Wellbeing Committee have being running Killeedy All Stars. This initiative aims to provide an inclusive and diverse environment for all. The objective is to include children who for one reason or another could not take part in a typical team-based game. The All Stars focused on balance, coordination and ball skills through fun based activities and games. Many thanks to the coaches and young helpers who made this such a success. The All Stars will be back for more fun later in the year.
Congratulations:
Congratulations to Ronan Magner on his selection to the West Mackey Team for 2024. Unfortunately, the West lost out by the smallest of margins to the South in the final. Congratulations and best wishes to Odhran Kelleher and Diarmuid Mullaney on their selection to the Celtic Challenge hurling squad.
