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<\/a> us.<\/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

CAMOGIE<\/p>\n

Under-12:<\/strong> The under-12 team had a great win over an excellent Portroe side in the league final by 5-0 to 1-1. Both teams were excellent and all players displayed the wonderful skills of Camogie in a determined and committed manner that did both clubs proud. We want to thank all the players, their parents and guardians as well as their superb and diligent mentors Mike Hallinan, Lorraine McLoone and Mike Ryan for all their selfless hard work.<\/p>\n

Under-13:<\/strong> The under-13 semi-final was postponed and will be re-fixed for a later date.<\/p>\n

AGM:<\/strong> The AGM will be held on Monday, December 1st at 7pm in the hurling complex. All members are invited to attend and any motions must be submitted to Denise Morris ASAP.<\/p>\n
