22nd January 2012

Could your child be the next Dubs star? Come along and give Gaelic football a try, join us for a morning of fun for all the family, plus have your photo taken with the Sam Maguire! It all takes place at Ballymun Kickhams Nursery Registration Day this Saturday 28th January from 9.30am-11.30am. The nursery is suitable for boys and girls aged 4 – 10 and takes place St. Kevin’s Boys School, Ballygall Road East. For more information, call James on 086 408 2561. The Nursery will also be running a cake sale at the registration morning and all proceeds will go directly to the nursery. Donations of cakes for the cake sale are welcomed.

The events in the club continue on Saturday afternoon (28th) as there will also be an exhibition/charity match in Pairc Ciceam in memory of Cormac McAnallen. All money raised on the day will be donated to the Cormac Trust (www.thecormactrust.com) for raising awareness of Sudden Cardiac Arrest. On the day, a Ballymun Kickhams select team will play Cormac McAnallens GAC from Sydney, Australia in Pairc Ciceam at 4pm. St. Sylvesters ladies team will also play Cormac McAnallens ladies at 2pm in Pairc Ciceam. The Sam Maguire will also be present early in the afternoon from 2-3pm. Everyone is welcome to this match; please support a cause very close to the hearts of GAA people everywhere.

Club membership for 2012 is now due. There will be a registration night in Pairc Ciceam from 7.30-9pm on Thursday 26th January. Membership can also be paid before that night to club registrar, Linda Dolan, or another member of the committee. If membership is not paid, then that member will not be entitled to order tickets for any Dublin championship matches through Ballymun Kickhams.

Best of luck to Dean Rock, Philly McMahon and James McCarthy who play for DCU in the O'Byrne Cup final next week.

Next weekend:
U12 training takes place on Wednesday and Friday.

U13 training this week is on Wednesday at 17.30 with challenge game against Fingal Ravens on Thursday at 18.00 in Pairc Ciceam.

Weekend Round-up:
U10’s beat Thomas Davis away on Saturday. Star players were Leo O’Reilly and Ryan Monaghan.

U11’s bet Plunketts in a challenge game on Saturday. Best for the Mun were Luke Taite and Craig Rooney.

U12’s played challenge games against St.Pat’s on Saturday. The U12A’s had a good win with fine displays from Ben Middleton and Jason Keating. The U12B’s were narrowly beaten with Jordan Deveraux and Lorcan Cahill playing well.

Contrasting week for the U13’s who had a disappointing result on Saturday against Ballyboden despite impressive performances from Joshua Mulhall and Darragh Conlon. On the other hand, they had a convincing win against Whitehall midweek with Jordan Bell, Sean Mc Grath and Aussie putting in superb performances.

Great win for the U14 team on Saturday over Ballyboden St Enda's.
