Players and Parents. Do you have boots which have been out grown and are too good to throw out? Over the next few weeks you can recycle them by donating them to our boot exchange. We will also accept donations of old club merchandise and GAA gear in good condition which you no longer use.
The aim is to have a facility where boots and gear can be reused so we can help the community and the environment. The boot/kit drop box will be just inside the equipment container door at the football pitch. You can also give them to one of the coaches. Once we have enough collected, we will sort them out and hold a weekend boot/kit exchange. If you don’t have anything to donate it’s ok, you’re welcome to take something if it is of use to you.
Advertising Signs around the Pitch went up last week. The club are currently offering a good three year deal on signage which will include Facebook advertising, anyone interested in having a sign at the Pitch. Please contact Darragh Timoney, Dom Leonard, any committee member or email our treasurer Treasurer.belcooorahillys.fermanagh@gaa.ie or contact any committee member.
Copies of the Club Plan Document can be lifted in EMC Accountancy on Railway Road if anyone is looking to read at what’s planned over the next few years in the Club.
