We need your support - EGM 6th Sept 9.00pm

We have the site, we have the money, we have planning permission, we have a developer and a design, we just need our members permission to draw down the Lotto Grant. Extraordinary General Meeting at Scoil Iosa Thusrsday 6th Sept 9.00pm. Make whatever arrangements necessary, we need over 200 votes from club members. There is a lot of work over the last five years by Mick, Brendan, Eddie and more to get us this marvelous and necessary facility. DON'T DARE LET THEM DOWN

Often called a Hurling Wall but we know we will develop our Football skills in a similar manner. Brendan and his buddy Jumbo visited Riverside outside Birr about 6 years ago to witness Paudi Butler coaching a Galway Minor Hurling team and the intensity and skill so impressed him he decided there and then that Syls needed a facility like this. Brendan collared Mick Stuart and together they have nurtured and developed the idea, raised the money (thanks to the Stack Family and the Lotto) and with Eddies help, worked with Fingal CoCo and local political representatives to pull it all together.

Our plan is for a double sided wall, 30M long, 30M play area on one side and 15M on the other, hardtop surface, flodlighting and fencing.

The Wall will be built on the field just above the All Weather field in Broomfield and we hope to turn the sod in Sept 2012.

 There is a nice video here to show some of the possibilities
