MONALEEN GAA CLUB NOTES

FIRST COMMUNION: Best wishes to the second class students of Monaleen NS who were due to make their First Holy Communion last weekend. Many of them are members of our under 8 and 9 teams and hopefully they will receive their sacrament soon once this Covid-19 crisis is over.

COVID-19: In line with the position advised by Limerick County GAA board, Monaleen GAA club continues to respectfully requests parents not to send their children to club grounds during the period of social distancing put in place by the Government. This position has been taken to limit community transmission of the Coronavirus and in order to protect vulnerable people in our locality. Signs have now been erected clearly indicating that the pitch is closed, with access prohibited. Adults, please lead by example, parents, please tell your children why it is important to keep a social distance. We must stay apart for the safety of all of our community.
