#2. Saturday League starts this weekend(18/8) away to Donore kick-off 2:30pm. Donore now play at Dublinbus grounds in Ballyfermot near Liffey Valley Shopping centre.
i) Meet in the dressing rooms at 1:30pm
ii) Are you available?
#3. Just a few rules I expect each one of you to observe as the season gets underway……
Rule 1.
If you have initially indicated that you are available for a match and due to some unforseen circumstance you can’t make the match :-
a) I need you to let me know 24hours before match kick-off via SMS or email
b) If you incident that stops you attending the match happens less than 24 hours to kick-off I need you to ring me.
Rule 2.
You should respond as soon as possible with your availability. I will not be chasing anyone for response.
Rule 3.
Punctuality. We all need to observe punctuality and try our best to arrive early for matches and meet at the stated times.
Rule 4.
Togetherness. We will need to fight for each other. I will not hesitate to take off anyone mouthing and giving out to a teammate(s).
Rule 5.
Team selection policy will be based on :-
i) training attendance
ii) keeping me in the loop regarding your situation i.e away, injured, etc
iii) you play well you keep your place in the team
NB:- no one is guaranteed a starting place.
#4. Each one of us is responsible for looking after the gear. I will ask for volunteers for the gear and if there is none I will nominate someone to take the gear. I will keep a register of who has done the gear throughout the season.
Lastly I have been delighted with our performances in the 3 pre-season friendlies we have played. Team work ethic has been great and some outstanding individual performances.
