Club Notes - 201608
Cúl Camp
Our second Cúl camp of the summer concluded on Friday afternoon with all recipients receiving their certificates, posters and goody bags from our own Sinead Goldrick as well as Dublin men's senior player, Paul Mannion. Similar to the June camp, the feedback from participants and parents was of the highest order. Well done to Jane O' Connell Bell and her hard working team for another fantastic week. A more detailed report on the activities from both camps is available here.
Fundraising table quiz
The senior team would like to thank all members who attended the very successful Table Quiz on Thursday night. A great night's entertainment was had by all. Thanks to The Grange Pub for hosting the event and particular thanks to all the helpers from the G4M team on the night.
Dublin U17 Development Squad
Congrats to Rachel Mahon, Sophie Merrigan and Sarah Currivan who were on the Dublin U17 Development Squad that took part in a national blitz in Naomh Mearnog last Tuesday. Both players had an outstanding tournament. Sophie and Sarah names have been added to our ever increasing county representatives page.
Buses to senior final
Final reminder to all lead mentors that final numbers, and payment, for seats on buses to the County Final on September 2nd should be returned to Paul Ryan or Colette O' Keefe by this Thursday, August 25th.
Underage Championship
Best of luck to all underage teams who start their championships in the coming week. Fixtures will be sent out on Friday evening.
Free physiotherapy assessments
Senior team player Ciara NÃ Mhurchadh has almost completed her studies to become a physiotherapist. As part of her intern program, Ciara is currently working in Sports Med Ireland on Kildare Street. During her internship, Ciara is required to treat patients - without pay, so if any members have any niggles or injuries that could benefit from a review by a physiotherapist, or just want a gym program devised, feel free to contact Ciara on 086 2387666 and she'll make arrangements for you to see her in 32 Kildare Street.
Fund Raising Table Quiz
Running a GAA team is an expensive business, but running a successful GAA team is even more expensive. As members are no doubt aware, our senior team have reached the championship final again this year and to help offset some of the expenses, a fundraising table quiz will be held in The Grange Pub on Thursday, August 18th @ 8:15 pm. The senior players will be there on the night so this is a great opportunity for members to come along and wish the ladies all the best as they strive to retain the championship title. A table of 4 costs 40 euros and a great night's fun is assured! If you are unable to attend on the night but would like to contribute, there is an option to do so via our web site.
Buses to Senior Championship Final
The senior championship final has been scheduled for Friday, September 2nd at 8:15 pm in Parnell Park and Paul Ryan and Colette O'Keefe have kindly volunteered to organise buses to this game.
An email has been sent to all mentors regarding arrangements for buses to the final and parents should start to hear about this in the coming days. All teams have been asked to confirm numbers by August 25th so if you don't hear about this in the coming days, please do ask your team manager about this!

All-Ireland Minor Final
Commiserations to Tarah O'Sullivan, Hannah O'Neill and their Dublin teammates who narrowly lost out to Cork in the All-Ireland Final last Monday. Both Tarah and Hannah turned in terrific performances but it just wasn't enough to prevent Cork from retaining their title. After the game, the club hosted a post-match reception for the team, management and parents in Seapoint Rugby Club. Our thanks to Seapoint for the use of their premises. Thanks also to those who helped out on the night.

August Cúl Camp
Our August Cúl Camp is a little over a week away and it's looking like this camp will be even better than the July camp. Jane O'Connell Bell and her team are putting the finishing touches to the camp. Places are almost full so intending participants should book here as soon as possible to avoid disappointment.
GAA World Games Foxrock Cabinteely v's Europe Ladies GAA
Earlier this evening (Sunday) in Kilbogget, Foxrock Cabinteely took on the Europe Ladies GAA team who will be playing in the GAA World Games later this week. This was the last chance for the Europe team to iron out any kinks before the competition begins. 2 fantastic games of football were played between 4 very determined teams and in the end, the European Ladies came out victorious in both games. We wish them the very best of luck in the week ahead!
