St Michael’s offers support during Covid-19 outbreak

We expect that some, or many, in our community may wish to avoid towns, or may have to self-isolate or cocoon over the coming weeks in response to the Covid-19 outbreak and that this will create difficulties for them.

We want you to know that members of St Michael’s GAA Club are ready, willing and able to provide a helping hand if you need it. Whether it’s the collection and delivery of groceries / prescriptions / fuel etc, or some other chore, or simply a daily chat to ease the boredom of isolation, volunteers from St Michael’s are available to assist.

If you need help, please don’t hesitate to call one of our area leaders below, each of whom is supported by a small army of club members. Together, we are stronger and can overcome this difficulty.

Cootehall / Ardcarne : Anthony Dowd 087 262 5090, Corrigeenroe : Conor McLoughlin 087 231 3633,  Drumboylan / Dereenargon : Kevin Guckian 086 832 8337,  Knockvicar / Crossna : Jenny Bruen 087 681 1655

Closure of Pitch & Gym

The GAA Injury Benefit Fund and Public Liability insurance cover is suspended, in respect of any playing/training activity undertaken by GAA Clubs or its members or undertaken on Club property.

In light of this it is necessary to CLOSE grounds and facilities including gym to everyone until the situation is reassessed.
