We will be returning to the same great place, where we have access to both a football pitch and a sport hall, catering for all our needs.


The cost for the event is €299 per person, which will include flights, bus transfers, full accommodation, etc Due to incredibly popular demand (there are currently 41 (yes, 41!!) kids registered along with 19 adult helpers… There’s still a LAST FEW PLACES LEFT but BE QUICK!!!

Well Done to Lara Gillespie Clarke and Alannah McEvoy 
 
Congratulations to Lara Gillespie Clarke and Alannah McEvoy of the U11 Lions Girls who were in action last Tuesday and Thursday against one of the top women's teams in the world, Arsenal, out in the Oscar Traynor Centre in Coolock. 1st up was Lara Gillespie Clarke in the Tuesday game whose team registered a 4 - 2 win against Arsenal with Lara playing really well and setting up 2 of the MGL goals . Next was the turn of Alannah McEvoy in the Thursday game against Arsenal in a rip roaring game which ebbed and flowed and eventually finished 3 - 4 to Arsenal - and in which Alannah starred in bagging a  hat-trick against the mighty Gunners (yet another Hattrick!) . These girls have done themselves, their parents, their team, coaches and Club extremely proud . There is a mention of Alannah in todays Target Soccer supplement in the Star - congratulations to them and all who help make it happen!
