Ballinrobe GAA club has a new Robe Rockets section catering for young players – and now the hunt is on to design a new logo for the Rockets.
The young club member who submits the winning entry will receive a €50 Vaughan’s Shoes voucher, sponsored by Ballinrobe GAA club.
“Robe Rockets is about fun, learning the skills of the game in an entertaining environment. We are very keen that the young players involved will have a direct input into how it’s run,” said Robe Rockets chairperson Declan O’Loughlin.
“And that’s why we want the Robe Rockets logo to come from our own players. Any U12 member of the club can enter the competition to design the logo, and we are now accepting entries.”
The winning logo will appear on all Robe Rockets publicity material and merchandise . Judging will be carried out by a local artist.
Club members born in or since the year of 2003 can enter by bringing their creation to their weekly Robe Rockets football get-together, or email it to secretary.ballinrobe.mayo@gaa.ie. Details of get-togethers for each age-group have been circulated by email and text message, and they are also available on the club website www.ballinrobegaaclub.com.
Entrants should include their name, age, address and parent/guardian’s telephone number with their entries. Closing date is Sunday, February 22nd.
