Operation Transformation

The Operation Transformation program begun on Jan 8th with big numbers involved and all participants enjoyed the various activities. There is still some places available and if you still want to take part please contact 0852498067 to register. The program includes talks on nutrition, mindfulness, motivation and health as well as indoor fitness / pilates / yoga / bootcamp and fitness walks and it is a great opportunity to get back in shape after the excesses of the Christmas period. It is also a great way of getting out and meeting people.

Girls Football - Girls born in 2004 or 2005 – Your club needs you

St Johns GAA is going from strength to strength. Following on from the U12 up win in 2017 we hope to field an U14 team this year. To do this we need more numbers. So if you would like to try out gaelic football for the first time, played before but aren’t part of a team, or play with a different team and would like to return to your parish team, please contact Liam 086 2342302, Gerard 086 3774224 or Olivia 087 7782233. This could be the best call you ever make for your daughter socially, physically and emotionally. Imagine watching her proudly with a football in her hand instead of a mobile phone !

Congratulations

Congrats to St John’s stalwart Dara McGarty and his wife Karen on the recent  birth of their son- a St Johns footballer for the future
