Planning to make Tyrone GAA even better
The Tyrone GAA Board October CCC Meeting is doubling up as a planning workshop where they’ll look at the Tyrone GAA issues that concern grass-root clubs. It’ll last no more than two hours.
At the meeting anyone can have their say on matters such as club fixtures, how underage football panned out this year, how the recession and emigration are affecting GAA clubs or any other issue which anyone feels needs addressed.
If you’re a Gaelic football, camogie or Scor person and if you have anything to say about how best to take the GAA in Tyrone forward then go to Kelly’s Inn next Tuesday night, 2 October, at 7.30pm.
If you can’t make the event next week, feel free to send in any thoughts, comments, or suggestions you may have to sarajaneke@hotmail.com.
