Congratulations to Patrickswell
players Cian Lynch, Andrew Carroll, Jack Kelleher, Kevin O’Brien and coach Natal
O’Grady who were involved with Ard Scoil Ris in their Harty Cup quarter-final
victory over Castletroy College. Well done to the Manager/Coach of the
Castletroy College team, Trevor Griffin, and fellow Patrickswell members who
teach in Castletroy College - Pat Dundon, Paul O’Reilly and Peter O’Reilly. They
have played a significant role in recent years for the progression of hurling at
Castletroy College.

The Juvenile Club AGM for 2011 took
place last Wednesday, with a healthy attendance at the clubhouse. Raymond
Fitzgerald delivered his Chairman's Address at the beginning of the meeting. He
started with a brief review of the past year. At Under 6 level, the players
learnt the fundamentals of hurling from their coaches. Youngsters need to
establish the core skills in their formative years to avoid bad habits in later
life. The Under 8s played in four blitzes, while the Under 10s participated in
six blitzes and the Parish League. The Juvenile Club wishes to thank the O'Brien
Family for their continued sponsorship of this competition. The Under 12s
recorded six wins and one defeat in a very profitable season. The Under 13s were
crowned County Champions in early September on a great day for the club. The
boys also won the prestigious Rose Cup in Tralee. Both the Under 14s and Under
16s reached County quarter-finals, where they lost to Mungret and Monaleen
respectively.
Raymond highlighted the excellent relationship that the Juvenile Club enjoys
with Patrickswell National School. The link is critical for the continued
success of Patrickswell GAA Club. The Under 11 hurlers and Under 13 footballers
beat Milford and Ballybrown in their respective finals. In closing, the chairman
thanked the coaches, parents and committee for their help in 2011. The club is
looking forward to more trophies in 2012.
Senior Club Chairman Paul Foley commended the great work of the Juvenile Club
and the commitment of its members. He identified the Under 13 County
Championship and Rose Cup victories as the highlights of the year. The recent
construction of the club gymnasium will benefit the young players in the coming
years. Paul also welcomed the relationship with UL for strength and
conditioning. Patrickswell GAA Club is moving in the right direction; however
finding the extra resilience to win trophies is crucial. Gloria O'Donnell said
that the Camogie Club is always eager to work with the Juvenile Club. She was
delighted that the girls continue to play in the Parish League.
At the conclusion of the AGM, the coaching staff was ratified for 2012. Under
16s will be coached by Conor Murray, David Mann, Dessie Foley and Philip Foley.
The Under 14s and Under 15s will be guided by the successful Under 13 coaches
from 2011 - Paddy Flynn, Frank Dillon, Willie Leahy, Richard Maher and Mike
Quinn. The Under 12s and Under 13s panel is Gary Kirby, Ger Considine, Damien
Gillane, Barry Foley and Declan Gillane. The Under 10s are coached by Dominic
Harmon, Pa Lynch, Raymond Fitzgerald, John Tuohy and John Gorman. The Under 8
coaching team is Pat Earls, Peter Maher and Eoin Bennis. The Under 6s are
trained by Dessie Foley, Denver Morrissey, Gearoid Balfry, Ian Kelliher and
James Mann.
Minor hurling training will take place every Sunday night at 6pm. Everyone is
welcome. Please contact Pa Dundon on 086-2935837 for more information.
