PRO Notes 8.8.2018

Just a quick holiday update!

With the school summer holidays upon us, the youth side of the club take a well-deserved break.  The Reserve team have been in action with a fantastic win over NLS in the League Semi-final.  Score 4 – 08 to 2 – 11.  Trailing at half time 1 – 03 to 0 – 08, they overcame the point deficit finding the back of the net a further three times and found accuracy between the posts.  A great team performance and everyone is now looking forward to the final on the 11/8 at Ruislip.

 

   A hero from Parnells

We would like to highlight a club members recent heroic efforts.  Mick O’Beirne helped save a mother and young baby from a flat fire in North Harrow; the story featured in the Harrow Times recently.  The fire brigade said his early intervention definitely helped save lives and the building.  Mick, you are a credit to the community and the club is very proud of you.   

 

September dates for the diary:  U12 tournament in memory of Conrad Ryan, Nora Togher and Gerry Somers takes place on 15th September 2018 at Harrow Rugby Club.  Parnells Youth Annual Golf Day is at Stanmore Golf Club 28th September 2018.  All information will be on the website.

 

We would like to pass our condolences on to the Sheridan and Watson families on the passing of Tim Geraghty who hailed from Roscommon but resided in Achill Island (Co Mayo).  Tim was a great family man and we would like to extend our sympathies to his wife Maud, children and grandchildren, some former and current youth players.  Tim Watson from many years ago and to Noel Sheridan (son in law and former Youth Assistant Treasurer) and children, Rory, Liam and Matthew.  Also to Margaret Farrell on the loss of her brother Fr John O’Donnell from Black Lion, Co Cavan.  May they both rest in peace.

 

We hope our members are enjoying the summer break and all the best with the exam results.
