AGM
Last month, both Boyle GAA Club and Boyle LGFA Club held their Annual General Meetings. To reflect on a historic year for Gaelic Games in the town, we have summarised below what took place at both AGMs:
Boyle GAA Club AGM took place at Abbey
Park on December 8th. Secretary Michael Tormey gave his report on the on-field
activities during the year and congratulated all teams and their mentors, in
particular the u13 team/mentors who won the Keenan Cup and the adult Junior
team/mentors who won the Junior B Championship. Outgoing Chairman David Kelly
gave his address in which he highlighted some of the club's achievements this
year and over the last four years during which he was chair. These included Enda
Smith’s all-star award, the senior team winning the Senior league for the first
time in the club's history in 2022, the senior team reaching two county finals
in a row in 2022 and 2023 (something which had not been done since 1927 until
2022), the joint fundraiser with Boyle Celtic in 2021, tarmacking the abbey park
grounds and installing seats into the John Joe Nerney Stand. He also
congratulated the ladies club on their historic championship-winning
achievement in 2023 and Donal Smith on reaching the milestone of 100
appearances for Roscommon. David thanked all the club’s sponsors and in
particular Tony (RIP), Mark and Declan McGovern of McGovern Civils, Alan Cooney
of Cooney Motors and Ciarán Phelan of National Automation. David also thanked
all the coaches, committee members, volunteers, players and parents involved in
the club. Shane Feely was appointed Chairperson for 2024 with Cormac Mullin
