Our U12 boys were luckily selected as one of the winners of the Allianz Ireland Rewards Pitch Day giveaway a couple of weeks ago! ๐
A huge shoutout and many thanks to our own Ciaran Cunningham for thinking of the club and applying to the competition. Each winner's child and 14 members of their club team will be given the opportunity to play in Croke Park this Sunday, October 22nd, for the Allianz Rewards Pitch Day!
It was an early start for the boys and their families, departing Pรกirc Naomh Ultan at 5:30am. That didn't hamper their anticipation and excitement however, they arrived safely to Headquarters to start at 11am. As you can see from the photographs on our Facebook page, the day was an unforgettable one for everyone there. A fantastic opportunity to grace the hallowed turf of Croke Park! After getting to play and get photographs on the pitch, all the players, coaches and families had an opportunity to get pictures with the Sam Maguire cup!
The bus stopped in the Lakeside Manor Hotel in Co. Cavan en route home after a fantastic day, all the players were presented plaques by the competition winner Ciaran Cunningham which truly rounded off a tremendous day.
Well done to all the boys, their coaches, families and all who travelled up! A special word of thanks again to Ciaran Cunningham and his family for selecting the team as the entrants to the competition. Thanks to our sponsors who helped out in making this day so special for all, Millennium Communications, Emerald Hygiene Stores, Mooney Boats Ireland & the O' Donnell School of Traditional Music. Thanks also to our club chairman Alan Lyons for buying gloves for all the team and to Sean Furey for capturing the day so well with all the photographs!
