Registration is now open for 2024. You can register via www.foireann.ie for all players aged U6 up to adult including coaches. Fees remain unchanged from last year. Girls playing U10 and above (born 2015 or earlier) need to register as LGFA players and girls born 2016 and after need to register as GAA. All boys should register as GAA. If you have issues with registration on the foireann app please contact Michelle McMorrow or Mary Quinn. The club is participating in the National Club Draw for a first prize of a car. Tickets are available from any club member but you can also purchase though your foireann log in. 100% of ticket sales are retained by the club and will be invested back into our underage structures. We would encourage all members and supporters to support this is any way you can. Tickets are €10 each with option to buy anywhere from 1 to 10 on the app.
The winner of last weeks bumper Bank Holiday 50/50 draw was Seamus Flynn who won €1,034.  
We will be hosting a Couch to 5K in conjunction with Sligo Sports Partnership starting on Wednesday 21st February in Riverstown Park. The cost is €30 for 6 weeks and a registration night will be held tomorrow Monday 12th in Riverstown Park between 7.30PM and 8.30PM. If you can't make this time to register, please contact Marina Swann to register your interest.
As part of our Healthy Club initiatives, we have been successful in an application for a social initiative between the GAA and Specsavers to establish a connection between older and more vulnerable members of our community. Under this initiative, we plan to organise a trip to the Sligo NFL game against Antrim in Markievicz Park on Sunday 25th February. We plan to organise a bus, tickets and some refreshments on the day and it would be great if we could reach out to members of our community who would be interested in this trip - please contact Marina Swann on 086 8589048 if you know someone who may be interested.
We will be holding the 2023 Senior awards night in McDermott's Castlebaldwin on Saturday 9th March at 9PM where we will present the Senior Div 1 league medals along with Player of the year awards - all welcome to join us on the night.
The club wish to express sympathy with the Dwyer family, relatives and friends on the passing of Colm Dwyer, Ross at the weekend and to the Hargadon family on the passing of Michael Hargadon, England and formerly of Castlebaldwin who died recently.
