Following the long lock-down we can finally get back to the playing pitches. 
With the announcement that Club pitches will re-open on June 24th (Adult teams) and June 27th (underage and minor teams) it is essential that, prior to these dates, that all participants, especially adult players, parents/guardians of underage players and team personnel, complete the online e-Learning module and retain a copy of their certificate of completion.
In addition, one of the key control measures that has been put in place as part of a Safe Return to Gaelic Games is a Health Questionnaire.
• Adult players, parents/guardians of underage players and team personnel will be required to complete the online Health Questionnaire once, prior to their return to GAA Activities.
• Using the same system, Adult players, parents/guardians of underage players and team personnel will be required to declare, before each training session/game, that their health status has not changed.

A dedicated community support helpline has been established to assist vulnerable members of the public with their daily needs at this unprecedented time, whether that is collecting medication, food, shopping, social support and contact.
​
Kildare Covid-19 Community response forum is open from 9am-5pm 7 days a week.
 
Phone 045 980 202

E-mail: covidsupport@kildarecoco.ie


People who are not in vulnerable groups are being asked TO NOT call the HELPLINE as you could be delaying an urgent response to a person in great need.

After 20 years as referee coordinator and member of various County Board committees Mick Fennin has taken a well deserved break. He was honoured for his contribution last night at the County Convention by Chairman Ger Donnelly. We wish Mick and family the very best.

Castlemitchell had another enjoyable visit to Hawkfield with the Under 15 team victorious over Kilcullen in the League final. Both teams have to be commended for their outstanding display of football in very windy wintery conditions and treated the spectators to a nine goal feast. Congratulations to the team and their coaches Micheál Kelly and Tom Harris.

Congratulations to our Under 13 team who had a fantastic victory over Kilcullen yesterday in the Under 13 League final played in Hawkfield. Loosing by 7 points at one stage the young 'Mitchells never gave up and ran out convincing winners on a score line of 7- 09 to 5-07. The club wishes Bryan a very speedy recovery following his knee injury during the match.
