Juvenile Presentation Iontas 9th March 2025
Our Juvenile Presentation took place in Iontas on Sunday evening 9th March when we acknowledged all our Juvenile players’ participation & progression in the game. Special guest of honour on the night was Tom Brennan of CLG Na Fianna Dublin, the Senior All Ireland Club Champions. Tom’s sporting pedigree is in no doubt, he is grandson of Joe Brennan who won the 1958 Leinster & All Ireland Senior Football Championship with Dublin & who, on his arrival in Blayney, immersed himself in the hurling club at different levels & has now the U14 Player of the Year trophy named in his honour. Tom has cousins playing at club & county level & uncles on both sides who graced the pitches.
All our age groups received their medals from Tom with the U16 Double Champion & League teams providing the silverware. The U14 Player of the Year & recipient of the Joe Brennan Trophy was Daithí McCarthy. Coaching Officer, David Connolly, presided over the evening in his own inimitable manner & thanked our coaches, primary schools, in particular the Boys School, including both second level schools in the town. David acknowledged the achievements of club players in the different age levels over the year & rounded off proceedings by thanking Children’s Officer, Marisa Duffy for her organisation of the event. Chairman, Paddy McArdle, added his thanks to David’s.
The evening rounded off with some delicious food served up by Iontas staff. A perfect end to the evening.
As always, Glenn Murphy captured all these precious moments in his super professional manner, thank you Glenn!
