Kilruane MacDonaghs Notes June 10th 2020
GAA Road Map
The GAA Guidelines for Return to Play will see MacDonagh Park open Monday, 29th June. Small groups will be allowed to train from that date onwards. Full team training will commence on 20th July with club championships scheduled to recommence on 31st July. Inter-county competitions are pencilled in to start on 11th October.
In compliance with the published GAA Guidelines the club will be putting a plan in place for the commencement of training and the use of MacDonagh Park. Signage will be erected and hand sanitising facilities provided. The club will appoint Covid Supervisors and each team will have their own Covid Supervisor.
It is going to be a busy few weeks as we prepare for the resumption of training and games but everybody in the club is looking forward to meeting the challenges that lie ahead.
