Secretary’s Report 2023

The season 2022/2023 witnessed continuous progress in terms of rugby, administration and planning. On the field of play, both the senior and junior teams won their respective League Divisions for the second successive year. This showed impressive consistency and although the first team failed to qualify for the AIL, huge progress has been made and confidence remains high that we can succeed next season.

Progress has also been made in the area of club development with the Strategic Initiative coming to fruition. Plans are in place to follow through on the proposals of the six working groups, the most immediate being repair of the clubhouse roof, which will commence this summer and be completed in Aug. The Tennis Club has agreed to pay their portion of the costs that apply to the areas of the clubhouse used by them.

The office holders of the Executive Committee will remain in place with the exception of the Chairman Jack Mc Evoy who will be replaced by Stephen Mc Gettigan. Gavin Walsh will also step down as one of the six elected members. The vacant position of Honorary Fixtures Secretary was filled during the season by Cian Flanagan and Jimmy White was selected as the nomination for incoming Junior Vice President.
