What started with the group pictured above at their very first training session has quickly developed into a fantastic new addition to Dicksboro.
Our Mothers & Others group now has over 30 members, with an average of around 16 attending training each week.
The ladies are being put through their paces by Dicksboro Gaelic football legend Aidan Maher (Team Manager), who has brought plenty of experience and enthusiasm to the training sessions.
The emphasis is firmly on fun, fitness, friendship and participation. Players of all abilities are welcome — whether you played football years ago or have never kicked a ball before.
After weeks of training, the group have had two competitive fixtures.
1st Dicksboro Mothers & Others v Ballinakill
2nd Dicksboro Mothers & Others v Danesfort
Both games were very enjoyable and lots of fun was had. Whilst we don’t measure sucess in wins for this group safe to say that Aidan Mahers tenure as manager is safe (for now!)
And in the true spirit of Mothers & Others, the football was followed by refreshments and a chance to socialise afterwards in the Palmerstown clubhouse.
New members are always welcome, so if you fancy getting active, meeting new people and enjoying some football in a relaxed and friendly environment, come along and give it a go.
The team were delighted to partner with Aidan Clancy from Clancy Homes recently for the sponsorship of new Jersey’s for this team. Huge thank you to all at Clancy Homes for their generosity with this.
All the best to everyone involved in the brilliant new addition to club life in Dicksboro. For anyone interested in getting involved please reach out to Aidan or Andria
