Last Sunday (21/4/13) evening mark a very proud moment in our clubs' history and evolution. On that day Douglas were crowned under 14 "A" Cork Féile na nGael champions in Páirc uí Rinn.

Annual Golf Classic
Venue; Douglas Golf Club
Date; Friday, 31st May 2013
Cost; €200 per team of 3.
Bookings; Dermot Keane ( 087 2261845)

The golf classic is one of the primary fund raisers in the club annually and the income generated plays a significant role in the funding and running of the Senior Hurling and Football squads each year. Without it the preparation of the Senior, Junior and Minor teams would be severely impacted.

Please do try to support this event in whatever way possible through participation or indeed sponsorship .

Today Douglas GAA visited Scoil Nioclas to announce an extended School coaching initiative.

Trained coaches from within our Senior Hurling and Football panels have made themselves available to provide coaching to the youngsters of Scoil Nioclais. This will happen as part of the sport curriculum within school hours and also as an after school option.

Current players Sean Collins, Dave Curtin and David Hanrahan will begin their coaching sessions in the week following the midterm break and continue until the end of the current school year.

The Douglas GAA Street Leagues recently participated in the Douglas Community Associations St Patricks Day parade.

It was a fantastic day, the weather held out and great crowds gather on the streets to see an array of sporting clubs, community organisations and fancy cars. There were stalls in the community park with all kinds of cakes, burgers, ice creams and lots more. There was a carousel for the smaller kids and some pony rides too.

Thank you to all who attended the Douglas Street Leagues Annual General Meeting on Thursday last 13th December @ Douglas GAA Club.

The Chairman, Secretary and Treasurer presented their reports for 2012. Congratulations to the outgoing committee for a fantastic job.

Indeed it is testament to the efforts of everyone involved that we now have approx 360 boys playing hurling and football with us. This is a massive job of work to keep the show on the road each week so a big well done to committee and mentors alike.
