U9 Girls


 

Under 9 Girls (born 2003)

 

Newsletter March 2012

 

Registration Form 2012/13 

 

The Mentor Team would like to draw your attention to the following:

 

Registration

 

Registration is a must for the year ahead.  The Squad will be playing matches this year, and in order to play any match, friendly or competitive, each player must be properly registered, particularly for insurance reasons.  Unfortunately we cannot allow a player who is unregistered to play a match.  To that end, all Squad members must be registered.  We have a list of those currently registered and will be ask those that are not to register as soon as possible.  Please do this by filling out a registration form and passing back to one of the mentors at training.  Registration forms are available at the Clubhouse, from any mentor, or by using the "Registrations" section of this website where you will find a link to the form.  If you have any doubts about whether your daughter is registered or not, please contact one of the mentors.

 Weekly Training

  • Gumshields are mandatory. 
  • Water should be brought by each player.
  • Subscriptions are 2 euros per week, payable on arrival.
  • Please ensure that your daughter is signed onto the weekly attendance register.
  • Please ensure that your daughter is picked up on time.

Match Training

This year we will spend a lot of time focussed on match training, where the Squad will learn more about using individual skills learnt so far in a competitive team environment. 

 

Match Fixtures

 

Full details of match fixtures and arrangements will be posted to this website and communicated to parents via text and email in due course.  Please note again that gumshields are mandatory for matches.  We would also strongly encourage football boots for matches, particularly during wetter months.  Please again read the note above regarding Registration.

We will be posting match reports and photos to the website, so watch out for these as they happen.

 

Communication to Parents

 

Communication will be via this web page, text message from our "Teamer" system, emails, and notes at training.  We would please ask that you provide us with your phone number and email address so that we can make sure that you receive all communications we send out.  In addition, we would please ask that you provide us with your home address in case of emergency.  We will ask for this information at the weekly training sessions where we currently do not have it for your child.  We also intend to hold a Parents evening this year so please watch out for this.

 

Club Gear

 

Jerseys for matches will be provided by the Club on match day.  We would encourage each player however, for the purposes of team presentation at matches, to have both a pair of club shorts and club socks.  These are available from the Club at a discounted price and are typically available at the Clubhouse each Saturday morning.  Please note also that Foxrock/Cabinteely GAA Training Hoodies were also made available last year and were very popular.  We will let you know as to the availability of these in the current year as soon as possible.

 

Child Protection & Codes of Conduct

 

The Club has a Child Protection Policy.  The Club also operates a Code of Behaviour for Coaches, Mentors and Trainers, as well as Codes for Young Players, Parents & Guardians.  These are all available upon request from the Club.  For further information, please see the GAA Child Welfare and Protection Codes of Behaviour and Best Practice for further information at the links below.

 And finally to note.....

 

We in the Mentor Team are really excited about the year ahead.  There will be step up in skills training, match practice and teamship, so we hope you will enjoy watching the results.  We are however keen to get parents involved to help us with the year ahead, so please let one of us know if you are willing and able to help us out, whether it be with assistance at training or helping welcome visiting teams at home matches.  We are also very open to suggestions so please let us know if you have any observations you would like to pass on to us.

Many thanks
