This year’s AGM will take place on Friday the 9th of December in the clubhouse at 7:30pm. All motions to be with secretary in writing to Elaine McColgan, Strand Head, Malin or by e-mail Secretary.malin.donegal@gaa.ie by Tuesday the 6th of December.
The minor board AGM was held last week with the make-up of the committee largely the same as last year with Danny Lafferty as Secretary and Seamus McLaughlin as Chairperson. Accounts were given of each team and it was a largely successful year at underage with nearly all teams reaching finals and the latter stages of their respective competitions. All teams are getting plenty of matches and training, helping to learn the skills of the game which will hopefully come through to senior football in the near future.
All coaches deserve great credit for giving up their time every week with all age ranges and an appeal was made by the secretary and chair for more assistance for coaches.
We would ask that all club members and parents take a more active role in the club as it really does take a massive effort to keep our underage structures in place. If anyone is interested in helping out next year please make themselves known to any club member and we look forward to another successful season in 2017.
