\u201cRichie Flannery, in the 2006 county final programme, was asked what did the club mean to him and he just said \u2018everything\u2019. It was one word and it says a lot. That says a lot in many ways. The club means everything as such. This club means everything to me. I fell on my feet when I joined \u00c9ire \u00d3g. I just fell on my feet.\u201d – Conor O\u2019Donovan<\/strong><\/em><\/center><\/p>\n

VOLUNTEER APPEAL<\/strong><\/p>\n

In 2014 Nenagh \u00c9ire \u00d3g catered for over 400 active members (170 juvenile, 225 adult) and in 2015 we hope to grow that number. Crucially, however, we are not simply interested in developing our playing population. We are also interested in attracting volunteers who are interested in becoming coaches with the club and administrators of the club. <\/p>\n

Here at \u00c9ire \u00d3g we appreciate that not everyone can train a team, that not everyone is interested in coaching and that not everyone has time to attend committee meetings. That said there are plenty of very practical ways in which you can help your club work hard for the betterment of the local community, our children and our cultural heritage. <\/p>\n

We therefore encourage anyone in the community who supports the club and who is prepared to give of their time on a voluntary basis to get involved so that fresh faces can bring fresh ideas forward. If you take that brave first step over the threshold, we guarantee that you will not regret it. So, if you are interested in lending a hand drop us a line – contact us<\/a>.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe all identify with our own place. My place is Nenagh and I respect every man who is from every parish in Ireland who is identifying with his home. That\u2019s the breeding since the world was made. I see the club as nothing only a way of giving our locality an airing on the public stage. It gives the youth of our town an opportunity to play our games. That\u2019s what I see our club as\u201d – Jimmy Minogue<\/strong><\/em><\/center><\/p>\n

JUVENILE<\/strong><\/p>\n

There will be an end-of-season party for under-6, under-8 and under-10 hurlers on Saturday morning from 10am to 11am in the MacDonagh Park complex. There will also be refreshments for the parents. So, we look forward to seeing you all on Saturday.<\/p>\n
