Return to Play- Club Makeover

Club is undergoing a makeover! Getting ready for the return to play and a mammoth amount of work happening throughout the club to improve the grounds and facilities. Non-contact juvenile training will return on 26 April 2021. Full contact Inter County training on 19th April. No date set yet for Adult training returning. Special Thanks to Peter, Paul, Kevin , T.J. and the many others who have worked so hard to get our facilities into pristine shape ahead of the 26th April. #Up Scoil

Meet the Member

Meet The Member Profile

Name: Name: Molly Power

Team you play on: Senior Ladies

Position on Field: Half back or sweeper

Favourite Sportsperson: Carla Rowe or Aimee Mackin are two phenomenal players to aspire to

Ladies Player Representative on the Executive Committee, dabble in a bit of coaching – really looking forward to heading down to a few of the underage girls training sessions when we’re back!

Favourite Scoil Moment: Winning the 2020 Championship with the best group of girls and coaches. Celebrations still pending!

Why Scoil Ui Chonaill? My dad (Gerry Power) played for Scoil when he was younger so it was always going to be Scoil

Any advice or ideas to players: I like to remind myself before every game ‘to play this game like it’s your last’- that mindset helps me to give it my all in a game

Thank you Molly for your contribution to the Stag’s Voice. Molly in addition is a great supporter of the Gaelic Mothers & Others Team (GAA 4 Ma’s) and has helped out at many a training session in the past. Molly gives a huge commitment to our club and thanks again.

Looking for Additional Coaches

Would you like to help out, get involved in coaching? No experience necessary as full training and guidance along the way. New Coaches, Volunteers, and Helpers always welcome throughout the club. If you would like to help out with Nursery or Stars, please contact Thomas Gleeson, Games Promotions Officer: Tel. 085-1137728

Easter Egg Hunt

Congratulations to all the winners of the virtual Easter Egg Hunt organised by Thomas Gleeson, great fun had by all that took part.

Nutrition for Optimum Performance

Another well attended event, the girl’s teams were treated to a fascinating webinar delivered by Niamh McCoy, the former Dublin Senior Football. Thanks to Alex Chapman and Thomas Gleeson and all involved in the organizing. Special thanks to the Presenter Niamh McCoy, some really practical advice given during the evening.

Clean Up Clontarf

Thanks to Ronan Murphy and all the volunteers that did a fantastic job cleaning up the pitch at St. Anne’s Park. Well done to all involved.

Members Corner?

Lidl Shopping: Thanks to everyone who took part in the recent Lidl iniative. Our club qualified for a set of jerseys which is great. Thanks to our club members for your support.
