Launch of Ballinrobe GAA Club Strategic Development Plan 2021 – 2025

  UPDATE, Saturday 29, January: The plan goes live HERE at 6.25pm Club members, supporters and Ballinrobe natives near and far are invited to join Ballinrobe GAA Club next weekend for the launch of its five-year strategic plan in Ballinrobe Racecourse this Saturday evening (29th January) at 6.30.  The recent easing of many of the COVID-19 restrictions means this is now an opportunity for club members to come together. Setting the club’s direction until the middle of the decade, Ballinrobe GAA Club’s Strategic Development Plan 2021-2025 is the culmination of a process which began over two years ago, drawing on ideas and inputs from across the community and further afield.  The group determined the Mission, Vision and Values of the Club which then fed into the objectives of the sub-committees looking at the 5 pillars of the plan.  Those pillars are: Coaching and Games Development Facilities and Development Finance and Fundraising Club Structures and Administration PR, Communications and Community The launch will also be streamed live on the club’s Facebook page. In addition to launching the plan, the event will showcase the club’s recent achievements and link to its proud history that stretches back 135 years. “This plan sets out how we will build on the strong foundations that have served Ballinrobe GAA Club so well for decades and chart the course for the next part of our journey. It’s simple, but ambitious, and we’re looking forward to getting started on its implementation in the months and years ahead,” said Club Chairperson, John Flannelly. Catch the live stream on Ballinrobe GAA Club Facebook page, www.facebook.com/BallinrobeGAAFanPage. Liam Horan will be Master of Ceremonies.

Honour for Ballinrobe GAA as our Club Radio commentator Tom gets local radio break

  We’ve been broadcasting games and other events on our Club Radio for a number of years now – and this week we are delighted that a club member who cut his broadcasting teeth here is set to get his break with Mid West Radio. Tom Carney (left, above), a former club chairperson and player and current coach, has really blossomed since getting involved with Club Radio. He moved from analysis to full commentary – including last weekend’s Mayo SFC clash with Castlebar Mitchels – and is now about to make his commentary debut on Mid West Radio. Tom will cover the Connacht ladies football final between Mayo and Galway at Elverys MacHale Park on Sunday week, July 2, at 4.30pm. We wish him all the best and we are very gratified that Ballinrobe Club Radio has proven to be such a good breeding-ground for Tom. Three other club members – Mike Finnerty, Rob Murphy and Liam Horan – will be on the road tomorrow (Saturday) when LocalStreaming.club, owned by Liam, will broadcast the five Celtic Challenge finals on GAANow. They will be accompanied by another young club member with an interest in broadcasting, 9 year-old (and nearly 10) Matthew McCormack.
