20th Anniversary Lotto Celebrations
We are celebrating our 20th anniversary by increasing our Jackpot to an amazing €10,000. Our format has changed slightly, as has been explained to you by your club contact.
We would like to take this opportunity to thank all those volunteers who helped out with our Lotto over these 20 years.
It is the lotto that keeps our club financially secure and allows boys and girls of all ages to enjoy participating in the GAA.
The celebrations will kick off on the 15th of July in Larkin’s Bar – where there will be music, food and a special guest.
Please come along for what promises to be a wonderful night of celebration and you never know – you just might win or share in that jackpot of €10,000.
So head out and buy that lucky ticket!

Player Injury Procedures
Please note that if a player gets injured at training or in a game, it is the players responsibility to inform the coach /trainer /referee and club secretary / insurance officer, Mike Carroll immediately. Croke Park must be notified within sixty days of incurring the injury.
Furthermore all physiotherapy sessions must be paid directly by the player to the therapist. On producing a receipt, the club will then reimburse you the agreed amount per session. This reimbursement is for up to a maximum of eight visits per injury. Please adhere to these guidelines and no exceptions will be made.
Sideline Guidelines
Please note that under age players are not permitted inside the dressing rooms prior to or after a senior game or inside the surrounding fence wire when a senior game is ongoing. This is to protect all parties involved. We ask parents and guardians to continually remind their children of this rule which will be strictly enforced. We appreciate your on going support and cooperation.
Appropriate Football Gear
Can all underage team managers, trainers/coaches please ensure that all players representing Milltown /Castlemaine are dressed in club colours (Green and White socks and togs.) This is to avoid any inconvenience prior to games. We would also ask parents/guardians of players to inform their children of this county board rule.
Defibrillator Availibility
Our club defibrillator is now outside the doors of the clubrooms and is available to the community. As we are all aware, access to a defibrillator can save some one’s life. Our club is compiling a list of qualified individuals who are competent in using a defibrillator. You never know that perhaps your own life or the life of your son/daughter/ mother / father/ brother/sister/granny or grandad may be saved some day by someone on this list.
Please contact Deirdre on 086 17 03 332 if you wish to place your name on the list or private message me on FB.
