Saturday, 31 October 2020 16:37

Pitch Day 2 One positive that has come from Covid-19 is the opportunity to get some upgrade works to our grounds at Moynalvey GFC.

Back in February, little did we know that we would be one of the last few clubs to host a major fundraiser in 2020 – our “OsKaRS”, before Covid-19 restrictions have put a halt to any such fundraisers throughout the country.

Our “OsKaRs” coupled with our “Strictly Lip Sync Moynalvey” in 2016 along with a Sports Capital Grant has seen funds raised for upgrade works to the pitch and surroundings of Kilmore Park Moynalvey.

Our Development committee have put huge work into overseeing the following works carried out at Moynalvey GAA over the past six months:

Wednesday, 26 August 2020 18:02

Please see below the latest update from the GAA's Covid Advisory Group. It relates to a Government requirement to ensure that all parents attending underage activity complete a Health Questionnaire in addition to that completed by their child. This applies with immediate effect in the 26 counties.

Covid Advisory Group – Updated advice on attendance at underage games - 26 August 2020

The GAA’s Covid Advisory committee have issued updated guidance to all clubs in relation to attendance at underage games. This advice is based on updated guidelines issued on behalf of the Government by Sport Ireland:

Clubs should note that:

• No more than 1 designated individual should attend a training session or game per child/family/group of children.

• The GAA Health Questionnaires MUST be completed by parents/guardians in advance of attendance.

• Overall numbers should be kept to a minimum and in line with the space available in the venue/facility.

Parents are NOT permitted to be in attendance at adult games where their child (U18) is participating.
However, provision can be made to allow an adult to be in close proximity (e.g. in the car park etc) in case medical or other emergency needs require their presence.
It has also been clarified that a parent/guardian attending an underage game in these circumstances shall not be subject to vetting as they are only the supervisor in a guardianship role for their own child and not any other child on the team.
