MONDAY IS D-DAY
Monday is a crucial day for our #Home4Cuala campaign.
This will be the moment when our local councillors will vote on the proposed redevelopment of our clubhouse and facilities at Hyde Road.
If they vote yes we’ve got full and final planning permission.
Any final positive messages can be shared using #Home4Cuala on our social media channels or if you happen to bump into any of our elected representatives over the weekend…
NATIONAL CHAMPIONS
Congratulations to Martha, Jen and Rachel who were part of the Dublin team that won the Division One title in the Lidl Ladies Football National League last Saturday in Croke Park.
Not much of a break for the girls who are back in Championship action against Tyrone next weekend, at Breffni Park in Cavan.
Nice recognition for Jen though being nominated as Player of the Month for June…
GOOD LUCK TO THE CUALA DUBS
Cian O’Callaghan and Sean Moran have been named in Mattie Kenny’s Dublin team for Saturday’s Leinster Hurling SF at Croke Park. Hopefully, the rest of the lads on the panel including Jake, David, Mark and Sean will feature as well.
Then on Sunday it’s Big Ball action from Wexford Park with Fitzy, Con and Peadar all vying for a place in the starting line-up.
Best of luck to all of our boys and girls in blue.

KENS KEYS
Can whoever Ken Fitz lent his Thomastown keys to please get them back to him as soon as you can or sooner if possible. The poor man is demented trying to remember who it was.
PITCH CONCERNS
Can mentors/coaches please conduct a thorough pitch inspection prior to games/training to minimise the risk of an ankle injury to young players – also if they come across a serious hole or surface issue on a pitch that they notify the office for a follow-up.
Obviously, such holes must be filled before a decision is made to go ahead with a match – to that end, a wheelbarrow and a shovel are located at each venue, with a ton-bag of divi-mix.
If there are areas of the pitch that the team Mentor has identified as potentially dangerous this should be brought to the attention of the referee before the game. Likewise, the opposition may also bring such concerns to her/his attention.
The following form must be used to notify the office regarding all injuries or incidents sustained by players while training/playing matches for record purposes – in the event of a future claim/deterioration in players condition arising from the incident/injury.
INCIDENT REPORT FORM. To be completed by the person in charge where a player, coach or mentor has been injured during an official training/match activity.
Please ask Mentors/Coaches to report serious holes or surface damage using this form:
HURLING GOLF CLASSIC
The 2021 season is now starting and to assist the Senior Hurling Teams in their quest to continue to develop, we are holding a Golf Classic at the excellent Dun Laoghaire Golf Club on Friday the 20th of August.
The added benefit of this date is that is a great opener to the All-Ireland Hurling Weekend, which culminates with the All-Ireland Hurling Final on the 22nd of August.
With the vaccination programme underway and the gradual lifting of restrictions, the 20th August gives you a great opportunity to meet with your clients and friends in a safe, beautiful environment, what better way to start off the normalisation of your social and business interactions.
