Today sees an update from GAA HQ which covers attendance at games. A positive move for sure. Here's hoping that before long, we'll be looking back with all this behind us. Updates from the county board on CCC2 fixtures too, and HQ have issued this year's guidelines including rules. So, lots to cover. Let's get cracking.
if you want something included in the club notes, all you have to do is drop me a mail at pro@stvincentsgaa.ie.

The GAA Issued their updated guidelines for Clubs and Counties in the 26 counties this afternoon. Best you read it from the horses mouth, but just for you, I'll give you some hot takes.
- From next week, 7th June. 100 spectators can attend a game. Yep, that's in addition to the players/backroom team, so an advance on last year. Parents no longer have to wait in their cars or
pretend to attend in a child-protection capacity. Folks. We'll get back to you on how we may have to ticket our senior games.
- Dressing rooms will remain closed. So, arrive in your gear and wam up outdoors, players.
- Gyms remain out. There is already a rule that allows for use of club gyms by individuals who are representing county. This remains. Sorry folks, we won't be opening the newly refurbished gym just yet.
- Bars can serve food and drink outdoors. (check notes, picks up phone to convene emergency exec meeting)

CCC2, which cover U13 to U16 games have issued their fixture list. The full list (which includes CCC1 too) can be downloaded from the Dublin GAA Website.
Normally there would be some time off in the summer, as families heading off to the sun makes it hard to field teams. What with covid reducing the playing time available, not to mention curtailing travelling, the county board have opted for quite the crowded calendar. And me with a lad on the U15. Games every Thursday and Sunday? That's my summer in Wexford sliced up good.
On the bright side, lots of games! Yay

- There are 4 sessions for each U7-U12 age group held over 2 weeks.

- Each session is 90 minutes long
- Sessions can be attended individually (€6 per session)
- U7-U2 can book 4 sessions for €20
- U13-U16 can book 2 sessions for €10.
I know its a while away. It is of course, subject to goverment guidelines. But I also know that enquiries on this have been coming in thick and fast of late. With that in mind, why not jump over to the booking page and secure you child's place?

22, 18, 8, 15
There was no jackpot winner. Weekly winner who won the €100 quick pick was Anthony Murphy.
Lotto jackpot next week will be €1,450. Except it won't be next week. It'll be the week after because we don't do lotto on a bank holiday.

Ahh. Bless. I was sent a note about Vincent's youngest coach. Charlotte Brennan, who when not lining out for the U8s, has been known to help her mum coach her younger sister's pod in mini-leagues.
Charlotte even drew up a training plan for last week:

Her mum also sent us a photo of Charlotte putting her younger sisters through their paces

Way to go Charlotte. I sense a certain games promotion officer is quaking in her boots!
