Bord na nÓg structured the programme to allow our young players of varying abilities an opportunity to develop their potential. The juvenile committees achieved this by providing all age grades with a schedule of between 13-18 dates in each code of Hurling and Football. I have previously strongly made the point that abiding by the Juvenile Fixture Calendar is fundamental to giving certainty to clubs, mentors, players and parents around the playing of between 26 and 36 match days in the year. Next on the list was seeking 2020 team entries in both codes. For the CCC1 Go Games programme (U8 to U12) the Football numbers grew by +2.7% and Hurling +3.6%. While the growth rates in recent year have slowed, we are +69% since 2008 in Football, and the equivalent in Hurling terms is +119%. As an addendum to these ratios is to look at the percentage participation in Hurling versus Football. In 2008 for every 100 boys 64 played Hurling, and in 2020 the number was 89. The CCC2 (U13-U16) committee received 320 Football and 228 Hurling entries both +23 and +14 teams respectively versus 2019. Using 2008 again as a base year that’s 104 extra teams in Football and +99 in Hurling. The playing season commenced on 2nd February with U15 Football League. By 15th February fixtures had been issued for all age groups U8 to U16. The full programme of Hurling was up and running on 29th February. pg. 3 Cumann Lútchleas Gael - Coiste Átha Cliath Comhairle na nÓg Nollaig 2020 Timeline of Events: March to December 2020 March 3rd – first juvenile games called off due to Covid19 March 9th – the official guidance from the HSE concerning the coronavirus (COVID-19) continues to be that activities should continue as usual in GAA Clubs. Both Juveniles Committees (CCC1 & CCC2 ) continue to recommend that the pre /post-match handshakes be suspended at juvenile games. It is also advised that players use their own water bottles.

September 18th - as a result of the Government’s decision to move Dublin to Level 3 restrictions all Juvenile fixtures with immediate effect have been postponed and in level 3, all underage training must be on a non-contact basis in pods of up to 15 September 30th - If Current Level 3 restrictions are amended to allow juvenile fixtures to take place from Saturday 10th October, as pg. 5 Cumann Lútchleas Gael - Coiste Átha Cliath Comhairle na nÓg Nollaig 2020 previously advised the U12 to U16 games initially scheduled for Saturday & Sunday, September 19th & 20th will proceed on Saturday & Sunday, October 11th & 12th.

October 21st - Nationwide move to Level 5 until at least December 1st with all underage training on a non-contact basis in pods of up to 15 November 6th - Bord na nÓg in conjunction with both CCC1 and CCC2 decide they will issue no more fixtures in 2020. The position of the sixteen outstanding U16 competitions which are at Semi-Final or Final stages is similar to that taken by the Adult CCC concerning outstanding Minor competitions. The remaining games will be scheduled from 17th January 2021 subject to Government and Croke Park guidelines in place at that time December 1st – Under the new Level 3 Restrictions, Club games not permitted but underage and adult training can take place on a non- contact basis in pods of up to 15 while continuing to complete Health Questionnaire CCC1 Go Games Programme (U8 to U12) The activity at the under U8 to under 12 age-grade continues to be the bedrock on which Dublin GAA grows. In the last thirteen years, we have seen increased participation of +69% in Football and +119% in Hurling.

    Na Fianna Nuacht Senior Camogie Team In Championship Final Following last Sunday’s fantastic semi-final win over St Vincents, our Senior Camogie team play St Judes in Division 1 Championship on Final, this Sunday at 3.30pm in St Peregrines and they’re looking for you your support. This is Na Fianna's second Senior Camogie Championship final appearance in two years, and it’s great to be back again. Camogie has gone through a very strong revival in Na Fianna in recent times with playing numbers at all levels increasing year on year. Na Fianna has four adult teams in Championship reflecting the strong growth of Camogie in the club. One would have to go back to the days of twelve a-side Camogie to find a time when Na Fianna last fielded four competitive adult teams. Sunday’s Senior squad and their success in getting to another Championship final is a tribute to this unique set of players who have played together and played for each other over the last while. The team has had a few retirees and injuries from last year's finalists so as a result it is a much younger team. The squad is a very good mix of established players and young players at the very start of their adult playing career. Special credit and thanks goes to Senior Management team of Brendan Skehan, Fiona Greene, Darragh Muleady, David Hughes, Fran Gray, Dee Quinn and Austin Rock who have worked tirelessly with this group of players. All in Na Fianna wish the Ladies and the management team the very best of luck Na Fianna Nuacht 19ú Deireadh Fómhair 2018 1 Na Fianna Nuacht Weekend Fixtures Our AFL8’s play Peregrines in Blanchardstown IT this Friday at 8pm.

  • Walking Together in Faith… Sunday April 14Th Is Palm Sunday and Marks the Beginning of Holy Week
    Established 1967 www.lucannewsletter.ie Sub. 80c Sunday 14th April 2019 Walking together in faith… Sunday April 14th is Palm Sunday and marks the beginning of Holy Week. During Holy Week Christians celebrate the saving events of the passion and death of Our Lord Jesus Christ, culminating in our celebration of his glorious resurrection on Easter Sunday. The four Christian Churches in Lucan will each mark these days according to their own traditions but at the heart of each manner of celebration is the saving reality of Christ’s sacrifice for our sake, a true point of shared faith and solidarity that transcends historical divisions. Each Good Friday the Lucan churches come together to walk in an expression of shared faith behind the Cross of Jesus. The walk begins at 12.00 noon when we assemble in St. Mary’s Catholic Church for scripture reading and reflection with some hymns. The walk then moves down the hill to the Methodist Church – but this year because of ongoing work in the Methodist church we will assemble in the small park opposite to continue the scripture sharing and reflections. We then proceed down to Lucan Presbyterian Church where we pause once again to share the Word and reflect. Our final destination is St. Andrew’s Church of Ireland where we conclude our scripture journey and prayers of reflection, and where thanks to the hospitality of the congregation at St. Andrew’s we share a cuppa before returning home. It is a special moment each year and one that we would encourage members of each congregation to make a special effort for.

  • BEWARE Some Months Ago the Elderly Father of a Good Friend of Mine Was the Victim of a Scam That Robbed Him of Several Thousand Euro
    Established 1967 www.lucannewsletter.ie Subscription 80c Sunday 6th June 2021 BEWARE Some months ago the elderly father of a good friend of mine was the victim of a scam that robbed him of several thousand euro. One morning his phone rang and a ‘nice lady’ introduced herself as an official from his bank. The call appeared on his mobile to originate from the same number that the bank had used in the past to communicate with him, so all appeared above board. What the poor man didn’t know was that sophisticated computer software exists that can generate false caller ID numbers to make it appear that the calls originate from any number the scammers wish. The ‘nice lady’ from the bank went on to explain how they had noticed suspicious activity on his account and how they were concerned that scammers had compromised the security of his funds. He was advised that in order to ‘protect his funds’ the bank were advising that he transfer the money into a ‘secure’ temporary account beyond the reach of the scammers. So convincing was the scam that the unfortunate man gave details of his account, complete with online password and PIN number without hesitation. The money was indeed transferred but not to any ‘secure account’ as the ‘nice lady’ had suggested, but to an account in Eastern Europe, from here it was quickly transferred several times to a series of Asian banks, making it nearly impossible to trace. The bank have disclaimed responsibility to reimburse the money as he freely gave the information to a third party.
