AGM

A large crowd assembled in the clubroom on last Friday night for a very productive and lively Annual General Meeting. In her customary comprehensive report secretary Kay Cahalan gave an in depth account of both on and off the field activities during the last year. She paid due tribute to the successful U-21 and U-12 sides and gave special mention to the club personnel involved in Tipperary’s All-Ireland success.

Assistant treasurer Ger Ryan presented a detailed set of accounts which showed that despite the club’s major investment in infrastructure and the difficult economic climate the finances were under control.

n a wide ranging address chairman George O Leary reviewed his first year at the helm and set out his vision for the future direction of the club. All the major positions were filled with the minimum of fuss.

Glowing tributes were paid to outgoing treasurer Michael Cahill who has managed the finances of the club for over twenty years in a very efficient and effective manner.
