A quick mail just to thank you all for your participation and effort at last Saturdays Gothenburg tournament which was a resounding success. Huge thanks goes out to the following people for all their help:
Declan Redmond - for coordination of the task list, collecting referees and helping everywhere he could.
Kevin Moorhouse - the brilliant MC, getting the BBQ organised and generally being the go to guy, a great end to his retirement from Gothenburg GAA.
Catherine Hayes - for getting loads of men off their asses and helping with the tent, benches, goalposts, doing the blind date (which was a huge success) AND playing a great game of football in the mixed games.
Niall O Connor - for doing all the paperwork and Jakey Prentice for helping with the goalposts (and eating the burgers).
It showed that with a good framework and good people anything is possible and that we all need to help and contribute to make this club a continued success.
Match reports and photos from the day will go up on the club website shortly but in short a great day of heart and determination from a great group of lads. We just couldn't keep it going in the final...
The future: next stop now is the Europeans rounds. Budapest in September and Munich in October. We need to decide which we are going to and what our plans are for the future. Can we have a meeting in the next 3 weeks (possibly at a licensed premises??)
Training: irrespective of our future plans, we still need to train. No training this Tuesday or Thursday - need a chance for the sore muscles to recover but training will resume with physical training next Tuesday 23rd August in Slottskogen with Caz and training that Thursday 25th in Partille ....
Irish Society: we need to start getting some ideas in about the proposed Irish Society of Gothenburg and how we 'll get by the winter months without the GAA!!! ALL ideas welcome ------ !!!!
