News for the summer.
Now that season 07/08 is over for all but one team in the club, the following is the plan of action for the off season.
Our two under 7s are naturally going to be under 8s next season, and with some of the kids eligible to go back to under 7s again, there will be places for under 8s next season.
The club hope to have two under 7s teams for September if possible. The kids are there from the successful nursery and the only obstacle is the age old issue of getting managers to run teams. Anyone who is interested in becoming a coach or manager for season 08/09 and who are interested in doing the relevant FAI courses should contact the club as we will put you through them.
The nursery for 4,5 and 6 year olds is still going, however new members at this stage should wait until the open day that we will announced for early July.
The time will change to 1pm to 2pm every Saturday in the sports hall and or all-weather synthetic pitch.
The under 10s from this season will be going 11-a-side in season 08/09 and the team are looking for particularly strong players to compliment a settled team. They must be born in 1997.
The under 9 league winning side will be going 9-a-side next season and will have three places available. This is a very strong team and players would have to be particularly good to make this side.
The under 11 premier side are going under 12 and have places for strong players to compliment a good team. At this stage, beginners would find it hard to enter in to a team who has been together almost six years. A coach is also required to assist with this team.
Corduff will boast four adult teams next season. This will cover div3 Saturday for the lads who simply want to play ball. There will be the main squad divided in to three teams in the form of div2 Sunday, a senior Saturday (highest division) reserve team and of course the Premier A team. Premier A is the number 1 junior division in the country and any player who rates themselves should see if they can make the first team and compete against the Ballymun’s, Killesters, St Kevins, Sherrifs and Portmarnocks of this division. For players of 19 to 20, there is a team here for you after leaving schoolboy football and work your way up.
Pitch 1 in Corduff looks finally to be getting its supporters rail erected. This will be a fantastic asset to the area and will compliment the superb facilities that Corduff now boast. Some generous donations have come in all ready and if anyone else out there wants to have their company advertised on this rail during match days, they should make contact with the club.
