On behalf of all the coaches we would like to thank all the parents and the girls for their commitment to training and matches during the year. To all the new girls who have recently joined us and to our current squad we look forward to seeing you all in the New Year. We hope Santa is good to you all. A return date in January is yet to be decided but you will be contacted to inform you of this soon.

Juvenile AGM
The Juvenile AGM took place in the Club last Thursday. The meeting was very well attended and opened with Cormac Quirke delivering his Chairman’s Report for the past year. He thanked the Primary schools for the successful work they are doing at an underage level , paid tribute to John Ferriter for representing the club at Rebel Og and thanked St Colman’s, CBS, Community Centre and Midleton College for the use of their facilities. Cormac thanked all those involved in fundraising; the Golf Classic and Christmas Raffle being the most successful. A big thanks to Market Green, Tom Kelly and Blackwater Motors for their generous sponsorship one again. He concluded his address by passing on his and the Clubs sincere condolences to the family’s of Maurice Moloney and Bill O’ Keeffe who passed away and were two very loyal members and supporters of the Club.

Liam Wade Secretary of the Juvenile Club then delivered his report. It was Liam’s first year in the Secretary role and he expressed his gratitude to everyone who helped him and paid congratulations to all the teams who’s achievements were as follows, 
FE11 hurlers who drew the League final, FE12 hurlers who won the Premier 1 League, FE13 hurlers who won the Premier 1 League and the Autumn League, FE14 hurlers who won the Regional Feile, FE15’s who won the Premier 1 Football Championship and the FE16’s who reached the final of the Premier 1 Hurling League and were narrowly defeated by Na Piarsaigh.  
Liam acknowledged that the Club is well represented on the Imokilly teams, Cork Development Squads and schools teams in both hurling and football. 
The club participated in a huge number of Blitz’s throughout the year and held many events such as the Christmas Draw and social night, Long Puck, St Patricks Day Parade, Cul Camps in July, Easter Camp, Golf Classic and Teenage Discos held at the club. A special thanks was given to Mary Quinn for another great years’ service and dedication in her role as Treasurer.
As part of the club’s 5 year Plan and through the various Steering Committee meetings and focus groups held throughout the year it was proposed and adopted that the Juvenile section would split into two groups.  The Fe 6’s through to Fe11’s would form the first group with the Fe 12’s through to the Fe16’s forming the second. 
This new structure would require two new positions on the committee for 2016, namely a Vice Chairman and an Assistant Secretary.

The Committee elected for 2016 are as follows; 
Chairman – Cormac Quirke, Vice Chairman - Willie Lawton, Secretary - Liam Wade,
Assistant Secretary - Michael Carroll, Treasurer - Mary Quinn & PRO - Ruth Walsh

Managers for 2016 are as follows;
FE6 Criostóir O Cathasaigh, FE7 Aidan Moloney & Robbie Barry, FE8 Willie Lawton, FE9 Kevin Mc Sweeney, FE10 Martin Mc Sweeney, FE11 Peter Smyth
FE12 Pa Beausang, FE13 Jerry Smyth, FE14 Mark Hennessy, FE15 Cormac Quirke
and FE16 Padraig O’ Brien.

The Juvenile Committee would like to express their thanks and gratitude to all those who attended.  We would like to pay tribute to all those individuals who have helped out within the Club during 2015 and for those in particular who are stepping down from their roles we thank you for your involvement and contributions.  We wish our Committee Members and Coaches every success in the coming year and would like to wish you and all your families a very happy Christmas and look forward to your continuing support in 2016. Everybody is welcome to attend the adult AGM on the 9th of December at 8pm where only fully paid members are entitled to vote.
