The club welcomed its new club Captains and President officially into office at the recent AGM

Huge congratulations to Ailish Kennedy as she takes on the role of President for the next two years as she follows on from David Strahan. The club would like to thank David for all his efforts and commitment to the role. He has overseen the running of the first council of the club and has done vast amounts of work behind the scene. We wish Ailish every success as she takes over.

David Haughton steps down from council after doing more than his fair share of work for the past number of years. We thank him for everything he has done. All other council members were re-elected, along with the past captains.

Your council for 2013/2014 will therefore be as follows:
Ailish Kennedy – President
David Mc Farlane
Tony Nicholson
Geoff Brooks
Kara Browning
Orla McKeown
Rob Johnson
Ali Keogh

Congratulations also to Siobhan Madeley as she becomes Lady Captain, following on from Ali Keogh. Siobhan brings a wealth of experience with her from her role in the EHF and is already a very active member of the club. She has been working hard over the past few weeks to get things in place for next season and will inform teams of the set up once all is confirmed.

Having just said goodbye to our youngest Ladies Captain we now welcome in our youngest Men’s Captain! Stephen Findlater takes over from Rob Johnson. Not only is he the youngest but we think he sets the record for least amount of time between father and son as captains! (9 years). Stephens involvement in ye club and irish hockey is legendary and he too has already started working on next season!

All in all the club is in very good hands!! We wish the both the best of luck. Please do support them in what they do as they, along with all committee and council members have the clubs best interests at heart.

Other committee members to be re-elected were Simon Walker, Wendy Lee and Peter Mc Connell. Barbara Snow continues her excellent work as Club Secretary while Mandy Bools will follow Siobhan as she was elected Lady’s Vice Captain.

Your committee for 2013/2014 will therefore be as follows:
Stephen Findlater – men’s captain
Siobhan Madeley – ladies captain
Barbara Snow – club secretary
Mandy Bools
Simon Walker
Peter Mc Connell
Wendy Lee
Rob Johnson
Ali Keogh
