Club Notes - 10th February

 
AGM
Our Club AGM took place last Friday in very unique circumstances in that it was the 1st in our history to be held virtually. There was a sizable number of people logged in and thankfully everything went off seamlessly.  
Chairman Neil Moore opened proceeding by welcoming everyone and expressing the wish that hopefully this will be a one-off occurrence and we can return to normality for next year.  The financial accounts were presented and even in a year of somewhat curtailed activity it is still revealing to see the costs associated with running a club of our size. The accounts were approved and adopted, and thanks were expressed to Pakie Hurney for his diligent work throughout the year. Jonathan O’Donovan produced an excellent and comprehensive Secretary’s Report which covered in great detail all elements of the club’s activities in 2020. Having been received very favourably by all those present and following a discussion on areas raised therein the report was approved. 
The Chairman then gave a wide-ranging address which again touched on everything that has been happening over the past 13 months. He thanked in particular all his fellow officers, committee members, players, team management, everyone working away in the background and all those who continue to contribute to the ongoing development works at our club grounds. On the playing side he congratulated our Minor Hurlers who came so close to county glory and of course the Senior footballers who await a date for their county final.
 
The last item on the agenda was the election of Officers and the committee for 2021. The outgoing officers were ratified for reappointment and a new committee elected. This ended the meeting as there was no other business and the Chairman called preceding to a halt.
 
Below are the club officers and committee for 2021-
Presidents: Austin Flynn, Liam Enright, Joseph Organ, Bernard Shields, Fr. Michael Enright, P.E.
