AGM 2016: Our AGM took place on Tuesday last, 19th January 2016. Proceedings got underway shortly after 7:30pm to a large attendance of members. Secretary, Matt O'Neill then read the AGM 2015 Minutes which were accepted. In his report, Matt recalled the successful year that was 2015. All three senior football teams brought home silverware. Our senior hurlers represented Kerry in the Munster Championships. Our ladies structure continues to grow and win silverware. The underage goes from strength to strength to ensure that we have a treadmill of talent flowing through to our senior panels. Scór gets more vibrant with each year and finds more outlets to display the Clubâs talents in music, song and dance. We continue to improve our amenities and the seating in our stand and painting of our Clubhouse presents a tremendous first impact for visitors. We continue to find new avenues for Club activity and this year we had Strictly Come Dancing, Tops of the Town and Fr Paddyâs card night. We also remembered our members who died during the year, especially our late Patron, Murt OâShea. Matt finished by thanking all Officers for their support and assistance during his time in the role. In his address, Chairperson Denis Coleman, raised the importance of remembering the members of our club who played their own part in Irish History as we celebrate the centenary of the 1916 Rising. Also, this year, Dr. Crokes GAA Club celebrates 130 year of promoting Gaelic games and culture in the Killarney area and beyond. He acknowledge the great year we've had and paid special tribute to those who gave their time and energy, both on and off the field. He noted some personal highlights including the Scór groups, the U14 Footballers winning the County Féile, the senior hurlers trip to Limerick representing Dr. Crokes and Kerry in the Munster Club Hurling Championship and Fr. Paddy's cards night in the clubhouse which has gone from strength to strength. He finished with a challenge for the members, simply to make a positive contribution to the club in the coming year, to play their part, no matter the size.
