* The Coaching Committee have decided to reschedule the coaching meeting for Thursday January 14 at 7.30 pm. A very useful meeting was held before Christmas in the clubrooms and it is important that all those people already involved or interested in getting involved in juvenile coaching come to the rescheduled meeting.

Again, the purpose of the meeting will be to discuss the future strategy for coaching football, hurling and camogie with our underage teams and is not aimed at coaches only but at all those people, especially parents, who might assist in any way next year. Your help is essential if the plan for developing the future senior players in Liatroim Fontenoys club is to be a success. The club will be trying to organise management groups for each underage team for 2010 so you will have a couple of weeks to consider getting involved with the juveniles.

* Committee meeting – The next committee meeting will take place tonight, Tuesday January 12 at 8pm.
