AGM 2011

We  recently held our A.G.M. and  would like to thank all who attended on the night and all who sent apologies.

The secretary, Mary Davis, presented a detailed report.

• She complimented the underage players and  management teams on their success in 2011.
• She also informed the meeting of the successful discussions with Glinsk GAA, which have resulted in the formation of group teams for all underage and adult teams for 2012 using players from both clubs. The teams will play under the name Glenamaddy/Glinsk. Mary further informed all present, that there were still issues for discussion and that these would be addressed as quickly and efficiently as possible in the coming weeks. She also stressed that it was important that  lines of communication were kept open with all players and members and that the committee were willing to address any concerns that were raised. She wished both clubs every success on their new journey and looked forward to lots of football for all players in 2012.
• The meeting was also informed that to date the club web site and blog has had approximately 11,000 visitors from many parts of the world since its inception, and she complimented Rynn Kemp for his continous work maintaining this site. 
• Mary thanked her fellow officers for their help and support in 2011. 

Kevin Duffy  the treasurer then presented the accounts which showed a healthy balance sheet.

• Kevin expressed the clubs thanks to all who contributed to the club by sponsorship, buying lotto envelopes and annual lotto tickets. He asked that players  and all members promote the sale of the annual lotto tickets both locally and also to the many people from our club and locality who have emigrated. Seamus Walsh our president was commended for introducing the lotto to the club. The lotto will have been in existence  for 20 years in 2012. 
• Kevin concluded his report by thanking his fellow officers and all who had helped in 2011.  

In his address club chairman Michael Curtin said that 2011 had been a year of mixed fortune for the club.

• Great success at underage had been achieved, but poor performance at adult level.
• He said that the  group team formation would be a challenge for both clubs but one that he looked forward to. He felt that this would make more players available from both clubs and keep the GAA flag flying for both parishes. 
• Michael thanked all team managers, selectors, panel members and their families for their commitment in 2011 and also the 3 primary schools and the Community School for continuing to promote the game. Michael expressed the club's thanks to all who had contributed in so many. 
• He thanked all our sponsors especially Glenman Corporation, our main sponsor.
•  Michael thanked his fellow officers and offered a vote of sympathy to all who suffered a bereavement in 2011.

North Board Championship Semi-final - Leaving Certs!

Hard luck to Na Gleannta

Hard luck to Na Gleannta minor team who lost out to Caltra in the North Board Championship semi-final last week. This was a game that was hard fought with both sides struggling to pull away from the other with the result in doubt  right up to the final whistle.  Na Gleannta suffered a set back early in the 1^st half when both Mickie Fox and Nigel Fahy, two key players, were forced to go off due to injury. At half time Caltra led 0-4 to 0-3 with the Na Gleannta scores coming from Keith Davis. Throughout the game many players featured for Na Gleannta but the "man of the match" performance was given by Peter Lohan for his skillful defensive play.   Superb free taking by Keith Davis from almost impossible angles could not go unnoticed but unfortunately Caltra were stronger and the game ended on a scoreline of Caltra 0-7 Na Gleannta 0-5.

Thanks to the panel of players who put in such a huge effort to reach this point in the competition and we are very proud of them all. Thanks also to the management team of Paddy Joyce, Cathal Dowd, David Burke and Michael Curtin  and to all who supported the team.

Glenamaddy Intermediates

Our Intermediate Team got off to a poor start in the 1st round of the championship when they were beaten 1-15 to 0-5 by a much fitter and stronger Menlough team. Menlough took control of the game from the start and Glan struggled to get the ball into the Menlough half of the pitch early on in the game. Menlough led 0-8 to 0-2 at half time having used the following breeze to their advantage. In the 2nd half Glan failed to make good use of the breeze and for quite a lot of the time were in disarray on the pitch and only managing to add 3 more points to the score board! Overall this was a very disappointing team performance.
