KNOCKADERRY GAA CLUB NOTES
CLUB PLANNING UPDATE LAST THURSDAY
There was an update to our ongoing club planning programme last Thursday evening in the Resource Centre facilitated by Donal Fitzgibbon (Plan Facilitator) and Seamus Toomey (Limerick GAA Development Officer). At our kick off meeting in January, sub-committees were established to look at different aspects of the club which included Coaching and Development, Finance and Fundraising, Facilities, Communications and Administration. Huge credit must be given to each of the sub committees for the background work and professional presentations that were given on their individual plans on the night. The next step will entail each of the sub-committees meeting with plan co-ordinater Ted Danaher and club officers in the coming weeks to agree the final 3 yr plan that will ultimately be sent forward to executive committee for approval before launch of plan sometime in May.
The Club Planning Programme (CPP) is designed to support Clubs in the development, implementation and review of three-year Club plans. The key features of the Programme include:
• Trained Club Planning Facilitators working with each Club.
• A Club Planning Guide for Clubs together with online supports.
• Improved implementation, monitoring and evaluation supports.

As you are aware, we were very lucky in 2018 as Limerick reached and won the All Ireland. We are obviously hoping this fate can be repeated again in 2019. To be fair to all, allocation of Limerick GAA tickets this year will ONLY be considered for paid up members. It should be noted that registering a child (children) only does not qualify a parent as a member so additional adult rate would need to be paid to secure membership status. Please see rates below.

· Allocation of Limerick GAA match tickets for the coming year will be considered for full paid up registered members only.
· Normal rate still apply if you do not wish to avail of any package deal.
· All club officers, committee members and coaches must be members of the club and pay membership fee!
Packages that you may like to consider:
· Sign up for €5/week (direct debit) or €260 up-front payment which entitles you to 3 lotto tickets per week and free registration per family
