Ballerin Gaelic Start

Ballerin GAC Gaelic Start has been successfully running for a number of weeks and has continued to run in 2011. It was introduced by DENI Coaches Ben McGuckin and Clare Leahy and the Balerin Club coaches. On average 20 Boys and Girls from nursery to P2 take part every Tuesday night. Anyone interesting joining should come to the club on Tuesday nights between 7pm - 8pm. All the children found it brilliant fun and they all seemed to be buzzing about it. Thanks to the parents and club coaches for making the programme successful.

Slaughtneil All Ireland Football Feile Campaign

Well done to all the players and everyone involved with Slaughtneil at the Feile Na nOg in Kildare over the weekend. To get knocked out in the semi finals against Ballyboden from Dublin who went on to win the competition is dissapointing I'm sure for the players, but when you consider the size of Ballyboden compared to that of Slaughtneil parish it put's the scale of the task into perspective and you give it one hell of ago by all accounts. You've done Derry proud lads

Ballerin G.A.C. who were also in Kildare over the weekend also done their club proud going on reports, so well done as well!
