WEEKLY UPDATE

We would ask all team mentors to promote the use of the club website. It can be used to publisize the great work being done throughout the club by having fixtures, training times, match reports/results and photographs readily accessible in one place. If anyone has any club articles of interest for the website they should contact the club PRO Terry Park.

Note to all young gaels in the middle-lower Falls area

Michael Davitt GAC welcomes any child, boy or girl, from 7 years of age upwards to get involved in Gaelic games. As the only GAA club in the area who currently provides coaching and games for juveniles, we would encourage parents to send their kids along on a Sunday morning so that they may get involved in their national sport. The emphasis is totally on fun and learning.

All our coaches have been trained to at least Foundation Level through the County Antrim Board and have received Child Protection Training. For more information, contact Kevin McParland on 07870761110 or Terry Park on 07815156545.

U14 & U16 Footballers in action this week

On Tuesday night the U14 Footballers take on St Brigid's at Musgrave with a 6.30pm throw in. This will be a tough game but this young team are making good progress and should give a good account of themselves.

Meanwhile on Thursday night the U16 Footballers enter the championship against a much fancied Lamh Dhearg team. This match is at Hannahstown and also has a 6.30pm throw in. We have had difficulty getting the same team out for successive matches at this level but hopefully we will have a squad which will give Lamh Dhearg a good game.

Senior Footballers win away to Ardoyne

The Senior Footballers continued their good form with a much derserved victory over Ardoyne at Mallusk last Wednesday. Ardoyne were also on a winning run but we outplayed them for most of the game winning on a score line of 1-13 to 0-09. Our next game is away to Rasharkin on 24 June.

Senior Hurling League

The senior hurlers continue to train on Tuesday and Thursday nights at the Falls Park - 6.30pm start. This Sunday we travel to Mallusk to take on Ardoyne at 1.00pm. We easily accounted for Ardoyne in our home fixture but they have strung some good results together, taking the scalp of the highly rated Creggan. This will be a harder task and we will have to be on top of our game to get the points.
