Roscommon Camogie: A huge thank you to Roscommon Camogie for a wonderful evening to celebrate the All Ireland Winning U14 and U16 teams. Three girls from our club were part of the winning U14 team and enjoyed a great evening with their families where they were each presented with their All Ireland medals and a Roscommon Jersey.
Warriors for Humanity: Club player Róisín Wynne jetted off to Kenya over the weekend on an adventure of a lifetime with Warriors for Humanity and Self Help Africa. Róisín will be helping to plant one million trees with 49 other male and female inter-county players – including two other Rossies, Ultan Harney & Neil Collins. The aim of the planting is to provide a source of income for local farmers, to enrich the soil and to help counteract the impact of climate change. The GPA is also in partnership with this ambitious project which saw a historic inter-county exhibition match take place on African soil for the first time last Sunday in Nairobi. What an incredible experience to be part of – we look forward to Róisín’s updates!
